The 21st April 2010 sees the first ever Floodplain Meadows Partnership conference. It is, as far as we know, the first conference to have been run in this country to focus solely on floodplain meadows. It will be held at the Open University campus in Milton Keynes (follow link below for directions) and will bring together academics from across Europe, conservation practitioners and students to draw together the latest research and restoration techniques on floodplain meadows.
Our programme includes speakers from the Netherlands, Ireland and Germany, as well as UK based academics and conservation practioners talking about their work and restoration experiences. Attendees will be invited to share their thoughts on the direction research should take for floodplain meadows, and it will be an excellent opportunity to talk to others involved in the management and research on meadows. We are inviting posters and would love to hear more about your projects, whether they are management works, or restoration projects and any outcomes you have observed to date.
This conference is being subsidised by the Open University, so is being offered at a very attractive rate. It is an opportunity not to be missed! Don’t delay, book today.
