1st International Congress of Historic Botanical Gardens
Data: 11 e 12 Outubro 2021
Local: Lisboa - Museu Nacional de História Natural e da Ciência / Museus da Universidade de Lisboa (MUHNAC/MULisboa)
O 1st International Congress of Historic Botanical Gardens é organizado pelo JBA - ISA, ULisboa e a IABG - International Association of Botanical Gardens.
Over recent years, there has been a renewed interest in the care and value of historic botanical gardens – those with built heritage, historical collections, or historical connections. Such gardens have made a major contribution to our understanding of the origin and development of botanical science, and to related disciplines such as herbal medicine, ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology. They have also influenced many of the crops we grow, the food we eat and the trees, shrubs and herbs that adorn our streets, parks, and gardens.
We dedicate this congress to Vernon Heywood, an intense and passionate life for Botany and Conservation of Biodiversity.
The 1st International Congress of Historic Botanical Gardens will be held in Lisbon, 11-12 October 2021.
The Congress will be held at the Museu Nacional de História Natural e da Ciência / Museus da Universidade de Lisboa (MUHNAC/MULisboa).
