Ahead to SCGIS AND SCB BENEFIT AUCTION FOR CONSERVATION SCHOLARS WORLDWIDE

SOCIETY FOR CONSERVATION GIS AND SOCIETY FOR CONSERVATION BIOLOGY ANNOUNCE CONCURRENT 2006 ANNUAL MEETINGS

The ninth annual international conference of the Society for Conservation GIS (Geographic Information Systems) will be held 24-28 June 2006 in San Jose, California, USA, concurrent with SCB's 20th annual meeting. The two societies share the goal of creating an international community of conservation professionals and GIS practitioners to build conservation capacity and promote geospatial technologies at local, regional, and global levels. The two conferences share the common theme of Conservation Without Borders, with the four major threads of local-level and regional-level conservation, marine and freshwater conservation, 21st century conservation, and transboundary conservation.

To realize the maximum benefit from this partnership, SCGIS and SCB members registering for either conference will be allowed to attend all events (technical and social) of both societies at no additional cost. Similarly, training sessions (which may incur additional fees) organized by either society are open to all attendees on a first-come basis.

More SCGIS conference information, including abstract instructions and registration (conference, lodging, membership, field trips, and training), will be provided in the coming weeks on the SCGIS Web site (www.scgis.org).
