My first report as President of the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology was published in the organization’s online newsletter. Published bi-monthly, the WFAE Newsletter is a supplement to its annual scholarly journal, Soundscape: The Journal for Acoustic Ecology. Please bookmark and read the newsletter, it is full of resources as well as information about current and upcoming activities in the WFAE. Visit the newsletter archive to learn about the WFAE’s history and recent activities.
