The Conference aims to provide an up to date on the developments in forest fire science and technology and an opportunity to meet people and institutions, to promote international cooperation in this research and management area. The scope of this Conference follows its previous editions. There will be six major themes for participants to present their work, each of them with several sub-topics. The themes are related to Fire at the Wildland Urban Interface, Fire Risk Management, Decision Support Systems and Tools, Fire Management, Fuel Management and Socio Economic Issues. These themes are not restricted and conference organizers are open to other subjects that are proposed as well.

Two courses, the V Short Course on Fire Safety and the VIII Short Course on Forest Fire Behaviour, will be held before the Conference, as related but separate events.
