OSARA Program Assistant Kelli Moses presented the Tracing Darwin’s Path course series during the poster session at the 93rd Annual Ecological Society of America Meeting, held in Milwaukee, WI from 3-8 August 2008. In addition, Drs. Ricardo Rozzi, Gene Hargrove and Juan Armesto organized a special session on “Field environmental ethics: Integrating ecology and philosophy for biocultural conservation in southern South America.” In fact, the theme of this year’s event, which is annually attended by approximately 5,000 scientists, educators and policy makers, was “Enhancing Ecological Thought by Linking Research and Education,” yet again reconfirming the course that the researchers have charted for the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve Initiative.
