2013 International BiodiverCities Conference

Dear LAB Pioneers, and CBC Partners and Friends,

We are very pleased to invite you to the 2013 International BiodiverCities Conference, hosted by the City of Joondalup, in collaboration with ICLEI Cities Biodiversity Center, ICLEI Oceania and the Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA).

This three day conference will be held on 9-11 September 2013 at the Joondalup Resort, Perth, Western Australia. The exciting program will feature group discussions, field trips and presentations from regional and international environmental experts addressing biodiversity conservation in the context of a changing climate. 

The BiodiverCities Conference will attract delegates from all levels of governments, environmental groups, businesses and delegations from countries around the world including those participating ICLEI programs, such as Local Action for Biodiversity (LAB) and other ICLEI Cities Biodiversity Center projects.

In addition, following the BiodiverCities Conference, there will be a Cities Biodiversity Center LAB meeting on 12 September 2013 in Joondalup, for all LAB participants that are traveling to the Conference.
