     Dear colleagues and friends of IRI:
     This is to bring to your attention an international conference entitled:  Living with
     Climate Variability and Change:  Understanding the Uncertainties and Managing the Risks,
     to be held in Espoo, Finland during July 17-21, 2006.  The conference is being jointly
     sponsored by the Finnish Meteorological Service, the World Meteorological Organization,
     and the IRI.  With a focus clearly on the management of climate related risks and
     opportunities, we believe this forum will provide a chance to review the progress,
     obstacles and future prospects for effective policy and practice in critical sectors
     such as agriculture, water resources, public health, and disasters.  Attendance will
     include experts and practitioners in all of these areas.  Please consider attending.
     A conference website has been established at: [1]www.livingwithclimate.fi.  There you
     can also view and/or download the first announcement.  A shortcut to that is:

     More information will be posted to the website, and a second conference announcement
     will be forthcoming soon.
     With best regards,
     Stephen E. Zebiak
