Preconference workshop : Systematic Quantitative Literature Review
On tuesday 28th August afternoon, Prof. Catherine Pickering (Griffith University, Australia) will give a free workshop on Systematic Quantitative Literature Review. Systematic quantitative literature reviewing is a smart and effective method for undertaking literature reviews, particularly for research students and others exploring new disciplines. The method bridges the gap between traditional narrative review methods and meta-analysis. It fits well for various topics, including outdoor recreation.
The workshop is aimed at PhD students and researchers, attending or not the MMV9 Conference. It will be held on the MMV9 Conference site (location and hours yet to be defined). The workshop takes about 3 hours to run with time for questions and a short break in the middle. It’s free of charge but subject to registration.
If you want more information about the method, you can download a short presentation here or use the link to the website on the method.

Field trips, excursions and social events
It is common practice for MMV events to include “in-conference” field trips. These trips are organized by the conference staff and will last around half a day. Destinations will typically be about an hour’s drive from Bordeaux. These outings will provide an opportunity to experience real-life examples of outdoor recreation management in the region where the conference takes place. For this reason, we will actively seek interaction with stakeholders and managers are actively sought. The “in-conference” field trip is included in the registration fee.
The conference dinner will be held in the Luchey-Halde Chateau, which is owned and managed by Bordeaux Science Agro. The Chateau is ideally located on 29 hectares of exceptional land at the center of the renowned appellation, Pessac-Léognan. This estate provides students studying the wine industry with an exceptional working tool, and beautifully showcases the school’s know-how and commitment. This wine estate is also used to develop new projects such as an environmental approach to the vineyard. Bus transfer from the conference site to the Chateau Luchey Halde (then back to BSA) will be organized. Start 19:30. Let us know if you are interested in as soon as you register !!
Post-conference tours will also be organized. They will include one or two-day excursions to a number of destinations in Nouvelle Aquitaine. Participants will be able to choose from several tours depending on their desired activities and location. These tours will not be included in the conference fee and require a minimum number of participants.
