The annual Urban Ecology and Conservation Symposium is a project of the Urban Ecosystem Research Consortium (UERC) of Portland/Vancouver.
The symposium was created to provide a means for agencies, nonprofits, universities and other educational institutions, and others to share their urban ecological and other natural resource and conservation research with one another. The symposium also provides a forum where individuals can network and share their work on an informal basis. It focuses on urban environmental issues and the practical application of related ecological and social science research in the Portland/Vancouver region. Symposium features:
a) Brief presentations and a poster session to give a taste of what’s happening in the region
b) Inspiring keynotes from noted researchers and practitioners
c) Networking opportunities throughout the day
d) Lunchtime discussion groups providing opportunities to exchange information and ideas
