<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear Stovers,<br>
<br>
The ETHOS 2014 meeting will cover the topics that we want, and
Mark has asked for additional suggestions.<br>
<br>
The original 5 topics that are proposed are:<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; ">- Update on the Global
Alliance and their activities<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; ">- Standardizing
Reporting on IWA Indicators<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; ">- Stove Performance
Inventory, Sharing Public Data, and Establishing Common Data
Formats<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; ">- Update on ISO
Process<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; ">- Updates on Protocol
Developments</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
<br>
In my opinion, the 5 proposed discussion topics are fine, but are
too restricted to the agenda of the GACC. <br>
<br>
Please add ones on:<br>
Stove technology and design (NEW, not a rehash of what exists)<br>
<b><u>Proven</u></b> dissemination and acceptance of stoves:
results from the field (This is NOT "The story of my NGO or
project.")<br>
<br>
And some panels and maybe some "short reports sessions" (4
minutes maximum per speaker) that have a common theme and then
PLUS open discussion/debate that gets to the real issues.<br>
<br>
For SOME attendees, the topic of "Charcoal producing stoves and
related biochar issues" is of major interest and will draw in
some additional participants. But this is NOT a biochar
conference with reports on impact on soils and plants.<br>
<br>
Recommendation: Attend if you can!!!!!! I have attended every
ETHOS since 2004, and the content and importance is getting
stronger and stronger. 48 intensive hours. And opportunities
for side meetings with like-minded people from around the world
are extremely beneficial. Registration info and link is below in
Mark's message.<br>
<br>
And there could be some possibilities for some PRE conference
and/or POST conference meetings and workshops, but none are
announced yet that I know.<br>
