The biennial International Congress for Conservation Biology is recognized as the most important global meeting for conservation professionals and students. The congress features a dynamic scientific program with more than 100 cutting edge symposia, workshops, posters, and focus groups; countless networking opportunities, fantastic field trips, and world-renowned speakers. The 26th ICCB takes place in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Chesapeake Bay is the world's most productive estuary and the region is rich in cultural and historical heritage and conservation challenges and success stories. If you have questions about ICCB, including the Calls for Proposals, email John Cigliano, chair of the Local Organizing Committee. ... [Information of the supplier]
SER organizes biennial world conferences and regional chapter meetings in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Australasia, and Latin America where academics, practitioners, and students come together to exchange ideas, showcase their work, forge new alliances and participate in workshops, field trips and other educational activities. SER2013 is the 5th SER World Conference on Ecological Restoration and the 21st Annual Meeting since the Society’s founding in 1988. The first SER conference was held in Oakland, California in 1989, and this began a series of annual meetings that continued until 2005. That year, the Society switched to a biennial conference cycle with a broader international focus, celebrating the 1st World Conference on Ecological Restoration in Zaragoza, Spain. The 2nd World Conference was held in 2007 in San Jose, California; the 3rd in Perth, Australia in 2009; and the 4th in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico in August 2011. Madison, Wisconsin provides an ideal setting in which to celebrate the Society’s 5th World Conference and 25th Anniversary, as it was here that SER was originally founded and here that the science and practice of ecological restoration first began with the pioneering philosophies and early experiments of Aldo Leopold, Theodore Sperry and others. This rich history, coupled with the pressing need for restoration to play an ever more important role in informing land management and policy decisions, forms the basis for the SER2013 conference theme: Reflections on the Past, Directions for the Future. ...

Open Landscapes 2013 will bring together researchers from all over the world that have a focus on open landscape habitats. The conference will cover a wide range of topics including ecological pattern and processes in undisturbed and disturbed ecosystems; consequences of global change for biodiversity and/or ecosystem services; plant-animal relationships; tools and targets for ecosystem restoration and innovative strategies for nature conservation. The focus will be given to all kinds of open landscape habitats including wetlands, coastal ecosystems, grasslands, wood-pastures, mountain ecosystems and agricultural landscapes. ...

As the scale and acceleration of climate change become apparent, Global Warming is arguably viewed now as the key driver for the ‘carousel of 21st Century Challenges’. Both as a means of understanding the future causes of environmental degradation, and in providing opportunities for remediation, ecological restoration is among the most important activities available to us. How we apply ecological restoration is a matter of adaptation and survival that will define our resilience. SER2015 will take the concepts, the tangible manifestations and the practical applications of resilience as the main theme to explore the cutting-edge developments in and impacts of restoration ecology. The programme will focus on four key strands – science, culture, arts and education – providing an integrated whole view of the ecological challenges we face. The conference will be held at Manchester Central, in Manchester city centre. ... [Information of the supplier]
Der IUCN World Parks Congress 2014 ist ein wegweisendes, globales Forum zu Naturschutzgebieten und -parks. Der Kongress wird Wissen und Innovation vermitteln und für die kommende Dekade eine Agenda für den Naturschutz und den Erhalt von geschützten Gebieten setzen. Aufbauend auf dem Thema „Parks, people, planet: inspiring solutions“ werden bei diesem Kongress originelle Ansätze für den Naturschutz und Entwicklung erstellt, präsentiert und diskutiert, die es ermöglichen sollen, die Kluft in der Agenda zwischen Umweltschutz und nachhaltiger Entwicklung anzugehen. ...

The goal of the summit is to envision and contribute to strategies for science for parks and science using parks for the coming decades by building on the historic linkage between NPS and scientists at leading universities and other organizations around the world. This collaboration will be crucial to nurture the future health of parks and protected areas worldwide and biodiversity conservation. The Summit re-dedicates that partnership in a forward-looking way by examining the mission of the National Park Service and its relevancy today, scientific and management implications of this mission in a changing world, social and cultural dimensions for advancing the mission, and the future of science for parks and parks for science. ...

The Society for Conservation Biology (SCB) is proud to team up for the first time with Agropolis international and the French Foundation for Research on Biodiversity (FRB) to host the 27th International Congress for Conservation Biology (ICCB) and the 4th European Congress for Conservation Biology (ECCB) to be held on August 2-6, 2015 in Montpellier, France. SCB’s International and European Congress for Conservation Biology (ICCB & ECCB) are the most important international meeting for conservation professionals and students. They are a forum for addressing conservation challenges and for presenting new research and developments in conservation science and practice. Most importantly, ICCBs and ECCBs connect our global community of conservation professionals and are the major networking outlet for anyone interested in conservation. The meeting theme is 'Mission biodiversity: choosing new paths for conservation', and as such we intend that ICCB-ECCB 2015 is a transdisciplinary meeting and delegates attend from a range of professions and sectors. Conservation biology has always had socioeconomic relevance but it is clear that biologists need to undertake interdisciplinary collaborations from the first inception of projects, through to implementation and dissemination of outputs. The programme will emphasise science-policy and science-society dialogues using interactive sessions and symposia. ... [Information of the supplier]
The 4th international conference on “Progress in Marine Conservation in Europe 2015” offers a regular international forum for discussions on currently important marine conservation issues in Europe with occasional examples from beyond. The upcoming conference will be a continuation of the three international conferences which proved to be encouraging events with attendance of more than 200 experts from 20 countries. The conference invites a wide range of participants and organizations such as international conventions and agreements, policy makers, conservation managers, scientists and inter- and non-governmental organizations. Attendance is limited to 250 participants. ... [Information of the supplier]
Das Motto unserer Tagung lautet: "Ökologie für eine nachhaltige Zukunft". Damit möchten wir unter anderem zu Diskussionen anregen welchen Beitrag ökologische Forschung zu einem umfassend nachhaltigen Umgang mit den natürlichen Ressourcen leisten kann. Wie hängen z. B. Landnutzung, Biodiversität und Ökosystemfunktionen zusammen? Was lernen wir aus ökologischer Grundlagenforschung für einen zeitgemäßen Naturschutz? Wie werden sich Klimawandel und Stickstoffdeposition auf terrestrische und aquatische Ökosysteme und deren Funktionalität auswirken? Die Diskussion dieser und ähnlicher Fragen soll die Tagung zu einem Ort des lebendigen wissenschaftlichen Austauschs machen, aber auch zu Debatten über adäquate Handlungsalternativen für einen nachhaltigeren Umgang mit Ökosystemen anregen. ...
