Once again, the Association for Fire Ecology and International Association of Wildland Fire will join forces to bring you an enlightening and innovative event! This not to be missed event will be held on the beautiful University campus in Missoula, Montana the week of May 21 - 24, 2018.
 
Wildland fire science and management are defined by continuums, The Fire Continuum Conference will take you on a journey from science and management activities that take place before a wildfire occurs through the post fire activities and fire ecology.
 
Call for Special Sessions 
 
We invite you to showcase your recent work on an important topic by organizing a special session. If you wish to organize a special session, submit a proposal by November 7, 2017. Proposals should include the title of the special session and a preliminary list of speakers and draft titles for individual talks. Special sessions may include 6, 12, or 18 presentations, each 20 minutes in length. Sessions can also include a 20-40 minute panel for questions and answers or further discussion on the special session topic. The sessions are in two-hour blocks separated by meals and 30-minute networking breaks.
 
Call for Workshop Proposals 
 
We are now accepting proposals for workshops to be held on Monday, May 21, 2018, the day prior to the conference at the University of Montana, Missoula, Montana. Workshops will be held on Monday morning and may be 2 or 4 hours in length.
 
The purpose of the workshops is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to discuss new and revised software, sampling techniques, and professional improvement in wildland fire and to discuss and exchange interests on a defined topic. We view these workshops as an opportunity for Technology Transfer - the process to ensure that scientific and technological developments are accessible to a wider range of users who can then further develop and exploit them.

Invitation for Attached Meetings 
 
In a time of dramatically reduced or restricted budgets, the Association for Fire Ecology (AFE) and the International Association of Wildland Fire (IAWF) recognize that it is difficult for those of us in the fire ecology, research and management fields to justify travel to multiple conferences and meetings and we think that doubling up on travel is a fiscally responsible way to attend professional meetings. We invite groups and committees to hold smaller meetings in conjunction with The Fire Continuum Conference.
