On June 30th 2010 join the authors of Biocultural Diversity Conservation: A Global Sourcebook for a unique online event to celebrate the launch of Terralingua's new portal: "Biocultural Diversity Conservation: a Community of Practice", a companion site for their book that was published by Earthscan in February.
Terralingua is an NGO that works internationally to sustain the biocultural diversity of life. During this International Year of Biodiversity, many people are coming together to learn how to safeguard nature and reduce biodiversity loss. We think that safeguarding the web of life means sustaining diversity in both nature and culture! We invite you to partake in a conversation about biocultural diversity on our new portal. The portal is an online companion to our new book, Biocultural Diversity Conservation: a Global Sourcebook (Earthscan 2010), the very first global resource on biocultural diversity conservation.
