Department to host BIOECON Conference

The Department of Land Economy is pleased to announce that it will be co-hosting the Twenty-fifth International BIOECON Conference on the theme of “Economic Development, Population Dynamics and Biodiversity Conservation”. The Conference will be held at King’s College, Cambridge between the 4^th – 6^th September 2024. The BIOECON conference is the largest international annual conference specifically dedicated to promoting research on the economics of conservation and biodiversity management. Our keynote speakers will be Professor Elizabeth J. Z. Robinson (Director of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), UK) and Professor Paul R. Armsworth (Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA). Details about the conference (including how to register) can be found on the conference website.  

This will be the 25^th ‘Silver’ BioEcon conference where we will have the opportunity to celebrate over two decades of promoting and supporting research on the economics of biodiversity conservation. The Department of Land Economy has been a staunch supporter of the conference and the BIOECON network in general over the years and is looking forward to hosting all conference delegates in Cambridge in September.
