Webcasts
To enable the wider network to "participate" and use the GLP webpage as a
resource, we are currently experimenting with providing video webcasts of
important events. With the technical help of Gregory Greenwood from the
Mountain Research Initiative (MRI), we recorded first sessions during our
recent Globalisation workshop and LaSyS Conference in Copenhagen. The
following links enable you to simultaniously see the power-point presentation
and the speaker. We thank MRI for providing this support and hosting the
webcasts (MRI) and aim to have a
similar solution for GLP in the future.
To see the presentations in your browser please follow the links below. You
should see two windows in one page of your browser showing the presentation
and the power point at the same time.
You will need to have QuickTime player installed on your computer - if you can
not see the video please install the free player first:
