The Caribbean and Central American Botanical Garden Network was established in 2013 to bring botanical institutions together to engage, share and learn from each other for the benefit of plant conservation and preservation of biodiversity.  The key objective of the network is to enhance communications between regional botanic gardens and to assist Target 16 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation.

 

Target 16: Institutions, network and partnerships for plant conservation established or strengthened at national, regional and international levels to achieve the target of this Strategy

 

At the conference, the St. Vincent Botanic Garden will be presenting on "Challenges facing the St. Vincent Botanical Garden in the 21st Century", as well as, "Funding Botanic Gardens - Challenges and Opportunities"
