Following the success of the first ADBS during the North America congress for conservation biology 2022 and IUCN African Park Congress 2022, we are organizing a second version of this symposium at ICCB 2023! It is jointly organized by the SCB Africa Region and the Africa Biodiversity Collaborative Group (ABCG). It is being planned as a roundtable discussion with four panelists including Dr. Jessica Torrence-Spence (USAID Africa Bureau Office of Sustainable Development), Dr. Kevin Njabo (Africa Director, Center for Tropical Research, UCLA Institute of the Environment and Sustainability), Dr. Tuyeni Mwampamba (one of the ICCB plenary speakers, former Section Board member, ICCB 2021 Steering Committee member and Co-Chair of Scientific Committee, and Professor at UNAM, Mexico), and Rubina James (Director, ABCG). You are all invited to this discussion to facilitate collaboration between Africa Diaspora and resident African experts. Lunch will be provided.

We very much look forward to meeting and welcoming you at each of these events.

Safe travels to all!
