Headed to the Biodiversity Revisited Symposium in Vienna

From September 10-13, IISAAK OLAM Foundation President and Co-Founder Eli Enns will at the Biodiversity Revisited Symposium in Vienna, Austria.

Biodiversity revisited is “a collaborative, thought leadership process to co-produce a new, integrated five-year research agenda to effectively sustain life on Earth. The collaborative process seeks to raise new awareness and thinking about biodiversity, from concept through measurement to implementation, as well as looking critically at the narratives, science and systems that underpin it.”
