Society - Environment - Science

25 - 30 November 2007

Perth Convention Centre, Perth Western Australia

Our logo - why Dryandra?

This conference will aim to explore the place of ecology and ecologists in our changing world. By highlighting three key elements – society, environment, and science – we want to broaden the debate about change, and explore the way we view, understand, manage and influence change. Can ecology play a more effective role in facilitating change in human societies? As the environment changes what is the role of ecology in understanding, managing and adapting to this change? And as the way science is done changes and the way science is perceived by society changes, how does our own discipline of ecology need to adapt?

“In a time of drastic change it is the learners who inherit the future.” (Eric Hoffer)
