2020 AAWHG FORUM
Theme: ‘Research and innovation’
Mark these dates in your calendar to ensure you don’t miss out on what promises to be a stimulating and valuable forum in 2020. AAWHG holds a major industry event each year: the biennial forum and in the alternate year, an industry workshop. Following last year’s highly successful workshop held in Sydney, the executive committee is busy planning for the 2020 forum.
The forum will be held from 16–17 September 2020, in Adelaide, kindly hosted by Adelaide and Parafield airports.
If you are interested in presenting a paper please complete the presentation proposal submission form, and return it by Monday 27 April, to the Australian Aviation Wildlife Hazard Group via email: jbrix@avisure.com and copy in info@aawhg.org
