INSTITUTE of ECOLOGY and ENVIRONMENTAL  MANAGEMENT
BIODIVERSITY BEYOND 2010: MISSED TARGETS, NEW  OPPORTUNITIES
Annual Conference, 2-4 November 2010,  Dublin
Bookings are  still open for our Autumn 2010 Conference - a chance for ecologists  and environmental managers from across UK and Ireland to champion the importance  of our work to protect and enhance biodiversity in the face of strong financial  pressures. 
We have  some outstanding speakers lined up and are pleased to announce a new programme  of seminars added as an alternative to the field visits scheduled for the 3  November 2010. The seminar topics are:
1. Green Infrastructure – a  practical session looking at tools such as habitat mapping with case studies  from Ireland (places limited)
2. Environmental legislation update - a session  covering all the latest updates to relevant environmental policy and  legislation.
3. Bat protocols – a session going through the new online bat protocol (http://www.buffalodesign.co.uk/clients/bats/bio_bats.html)  and explaining the implications for planning  authorities. 
Student and Graduates Careers Forum - careers  talks from ecologists and environmental managers explaining how they have moved  up the ecological career ladder.
