Ecosystem Services for Poverty Alleviation

Annual Science Conference

19-20 November 2012
Charles Darwin House, 12 Roger Street, London, WC1N 2JU

The UK's Ecosystem Services for Poverty Alleviation (ESPA) programme is holding its Annual Science Conference in London on 19-20 November 2012.

The goal of the conference is to bring the ESPA research community up to date with developments in ESPA science, including new results, new projects, tools and approaches, and to provide an opportunity for researchers working on ecosystem services and/or poverty alleviation related work to meet and interact with others working on similar issues.

Speakers have now been confirmed and there will be plenaries presented by Partha Dasgupta (University of Cambridge), Ian Bateman (University of East Anglia) and Ben Ramalingam (Institute of Development Studies/Overseas Development Institute).

The speakers will engage attendees in a dialogue of topics relevant to the achievement of poverty alleviation driven by ecosystem services, and will represent a range of ESPA-funded researchers and other eminent scholars.

Places will be allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis, so please register your interest as soon as possible. Registration will close on 12 November 2012, or earlier if all places are allocated. You are required to arrange and pay for your own travel and accommodation needs.

Further information (including a draft agenda) is available on the ESPA website.

If you have any queries, please contact Sarah Harley on evidence@espa.ac.uk.
