Conservation, Preservation and Restoration - science meeting the challenges ahead

Science can inform Land Managers and those interested in Natural Area management and restoration.
The need for preservation will challenge what we now hold dear as conservation; restoration projects will soon choose species based on their genetics.
Our speakers are at the forefront of conservation science under climate change - combining research and practice that can inform landscape restoration.
