We are excited to share the success of the recent 2024 Botanical Bridges Congress hosted by the Jardín Botánico de Cartagena “Guillermo Piñeres” in Cartagena, Colombia, from February 12-16, 2024. This year’s congress delved into diverse themes that encompassed the rich tapestry of botanical conservation and management:
- Caribbean Plant Diversity
- Caribbean Ethnobotany
- Botanic Garden Living Management
- Science in Botanic Gardens
- Education and Outreach in Botanic Gardens
- Botanic Garden Development
One of the most notable outcomes of the congress was the significant increase in participation, with attendance doubling from the previous congress in 2022.
