The 2nd International Meeting of the National School of Tropical Botany: From the Biodiversity Crisis to Building Solutions: Science, Innovation, and Networks aims to explore the critical role of internationalization in advancing research in botany and related disciplines. By bringing together leading experts, researchers, and professionals from diverse backgrounds, the meeting underscores the fundamental importance of global collaboration in understanding, documenting, and safeguarding the extraordinary diversity of plant life in tropical ecosystems.
The event also seeks to provide graduate students and researchers with a broader understanding of the opportunities, challenges, and strategies associated with international scientific collaboration. Through interdisciplinary discussions addressing diverse aspects of biodiversity research, the meeting will foster the exchange of knowledge, perspectives, and experiences while encouraging the development of collaborative approaches to the study and conservation of natural ecosystems.
Hosted at the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden, the meeting will provide a stimulating environment for strengthening international research networks and fostering meaningful scientific exchange. By bringing together different perspectives and areas of expertise, the event seeks to facilitate new partnerships, expand opportunities for collaborative research, and promote the sharing of scientific knowledge and discoveries in support of a deeper understanding and the long-term conservation of global biodiversity.
