JOINT CONFERENCE - Restoration 2012: Beyond Borders
CALL FOR SYMPOSIA
Deadline for symposia submittals is Friday, January 20, 2012.
The symposia list will be posted on the website in early February
2012. Registration will open in December 2011.
The Society for Ecological Restoration, Northwest and British Columbia
Chapters, and the American Fisheries Society Washington-British
Columbia Chapter invite you to submit symposia ideas for “Beyond
Borders,” a joint conference being held in Victoria, B.C. on May
15-18, 2012. This conference will be held in partnership with the
Restoration of Natural Systems Program at University of Victoria, and
will be a gathering of scientists, restoration professionals, and
government agencies involved in restoration and fisheries issues in
our local environment in the northwestern U.S. and Canada. The event
will be a tremendous opportunity to communicate broadly with 500 or
more people who share your business, academic, and/or non-profit goals
in fisheries and ecological restoration.
“Beyond Borders” is a four day event and will consist of three full
days of technical talks/symposia and concurrent workshops, with
Thursday field trips. We welcome all diverse disciplines (botany,
ecology, fisheries, wildlife, forestry, hydrology, marine biology) and
expertise representing academics, practitioners, research, and
government to submit a brief (~500 word) abstract for symposia.
