2024 - SEB Fall Virtual Symposium
SEB Fall Members-Only Virtual Symposium:
Connecting Diversity, Ancestry, and Knowledge Systems in Ethnobotany
Event Description
The program for the SEB Fall Symposium (or Spring, depending on the side of the equator) brings together contributions to inspire professionals, students, and those interested in ethnobotany and related areas on how ethnobotany can act to have a greater impact in facing an increasingly challenging world. Diversity, inclusion, ancestry, and adaptations are some of the themes that permeate the symposium. This symposium draws inspiration from new and old challenges of ethnobotanical research, contributing to the development of this interdisciplinary field with insights for action and impact. It is free for SEB members and offers opportunities for new insights and valuable networking.
