Conference on "Restoration of Coastal Habitats"

Goals of the conference

The proposed conference is to share information and learnings from various coastal habitat restoration programmes and try and build a consensus on restoration protocols for such areas. Habitats which do not fall under specific conservation framework (such as a reserved forest or sanctuary), but are of value to local communities are of particular interest.

The two day conference will be held at Mahabalipuram during the second or third week of August '08. The final dates and venue will be announced soon.
