Planning conservation to achieving restoration
A conference for everyone involved in conserving Australia’s unique flora and native vegetation
28 September to 1 October 2010, Perth WA
This conference is for practitioners, researchers, governments, community groups, non-government organisations and anyone else interested in plant conservation. We aim to provide updates on the latest, most relevant information, and opportunities to link up with other people working to conserve our native flora.
One-day field trips during the conference, and a three-day field trip after the conference, will give you a chance to be guided by experts through one of the world’s richest and most diverse floras in the international biodiversity hotspot of South-West Australia.
Conference themes include:
- Conservation planning
- Seeds and genes for restoration
- Engaging with industry
- The role of taxonomy
- Soil health and restoration
- Planning for climate change
Early bird registrations are open until 28 July 2010.
Call for abstracts are open until 16 July 2010.
