The 33rd annual meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology "The Meeting Place: Integrating Ethnobiological Knowledge", will be held 5–8 May, 2010, in Victoria, British Columbia. This year's conference theme celebrates the potential of ethnobiology to bridge disciplines, ideas, and communities, and to foster an understanding of the connections between the biological and cultural worlds. 

Specifically, we invite papers and posters that:

  • Are multi-disciplinary
  • Recognize the importance of traditional knowledge in conservation and restoration
  • Integrate archaeological and historical data with contemporary and traditional knowledge
  • Investigate the application of archaeobiological data to conservation
  • Integrate zooarchaeological and paleoethnobotanical data
  • Integrate ethnobotany, ethnozoology, and ethnoecology
  • Provide different perspectives on land and natural resource management

This year’s meetings will be back-to-back with the International Society of Ethnobiology Congress in nearby Tofino, B.C., May 9–14. http://ise.arts.ubc.ca/congresses/future.php

Next May, come to beautiful British Columbia for both meetings to celebrate, learn, and enjoy in a full week of ethnobiological sessions, symposia, and field trips.
