Introduction
The International Wildland Fire Conferences were launched in 1989. The conferences aim to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and expertise in wildland (landscape) fire policies, research, management and capacity building in an international forum that will strengthen the abilities of individual nations to reduce the negative impacts of landscape fires on the environment and humanity; and to advance the knowledge and application of the ecologically and environmentally benign role of natural fire in fire-dependent ecosystems, and sustainable application of fire in land-use systems.

Global FWI Monthly Forecasts
Outline of Fire Danger Products in the Global Fire EWS
The fire danger indicators currently presented on the Global Fire Early Warning System (Global Fire EWS) are components of the Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index (FWI) System. The Global EWS provides 1-10 day forecasted FWI System data based on the Canadian Meteorological Centre’s (CMC) Global Deterministic Forecast System (GDPS). The FWI System components are currently calibrated to commonly used threshold values that identify low to extreme conditions. As such, the Global EWS provides a means of comparing relative fire danger conditions between countries, continents, and biomes; and the 1-10 day forecast identifies the expected future fire danger trend. This type of information is often used for large-scale fire management decision-making such as planning cross-border suppression resource exchanges.
Although these indicators can be used to compare fire danger across the globe, the indicators are not calibrated to the local fire regime, which includes the influences of fuel, ignition sources, climate, fire management/suppression policy, etc. For that reason, the next stage in the development of this system is regional calibration to adjust the fire danger scales using historical fire data (primarily remotely sensed) and weather data. This will calibrate the fire danger indicators to provide operational-level information such as a potential for fire starts and difficulty of control. Regional calibration will be an on-going collaborative effort with regional and national agencies.

Kalau di wilayah Saudara-saudara ada kebakaran dan tidak tertangani dengan baik, aturan mainnya masih sama, belum saya ganti. Masih ingat? Dicopot. Sudah, tegas. Ini saya ulang lagi. Paling kalau ada kebakaran di sebelah mana, saya telepon Panglima TNI, “ganti pangdam-nya”. Kebakaran kok enggak rampung-rampung, di provinsi mana, saya telpon Kapolri, “Kapolda-nya ganti”. Kalau wilayahnya agak kecil ya danrem-nya, agak kecil lagi kapolres-nya.
“If the area of the brethren there are fires and not managed properly, the rules of the game are still the same, I do not replace. Still, remember? Replaced. Already, sternly. I repeat again. When there is a fire in the area where, I will phone on the Commander (Panglima) of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), “replace his Territorial Military Commander”. Fires are not resolved, in which province, I will phone on Head of the Indonesian Police., “replace his Head of the Provincial Police”. If it’s territory small is Military Commander of the Resorts and again territory very small is Head of the County Police“. (the contents of the manuscript)
