Dear Members!
After all the excitement of 2010 with its multiple events, the IFSR prepares for 2012, when again IFSR’s abilities will be strongly challenged. We are
now in the throes of preparing
- The next IFSR Conversation (April 14 – 19, 2012)
- The next Board Meeting (April 13, 2012)
- IFSR’s contribution to EMCSR 2012 (April 10 – 13, 2012).
- Improve the appearance and the interactivity of our home page
To all the events you find information and pointers on the following pages. Please supply us with pieces of information on your society and its activities to be put into the Newsletter and/or on the IFSR-website. We also want to remind all of you who have not paid your IFSR membership fee, to do so as soon as possible.
With my best wishes
Yours sincerely
Gerhard Chroust
