CSWA 2008 Convention to Focus on IPY and Northern Science

The programme for the annual convention, which will take place at Yukon College, Whitehorse, Canada, from May 24 to 26 2008, includes panel discussions, presentations, and a large display of posters about northern science and IPY projects. Participants will also go on a one-day field trip which will allow them to meet and talk with scientists and First Nations representatives outside Whitehorse.
