WELCOME

The 5th Mediterranean Plant Conservation Week (5MPCW) will be held from April 7 to 11, 2025, at St. Raphael Resort & Marina in Limassol, Cyprus. This congress aims to bring together specialists and enthusiasts in the research and management of nature, focusing on the conservation of wild plants and their habitats around the Mediterranean.

The 5MPCW aims to build alliances for plant diversity conservation in the Mediterranean.

The 5MPCW follows a highly successful series of similar conferences organized successively in Montenegro (2016), Valletta (Malta, 2018), Chania (Crete, Greece 2021), and Valencia (Spain, 2023). The 5MPCW will be held in the beautiful city of Limassol, Cyprus, from April 7 to 11, 2025!

The 5MPCW will also serve as a forum for sharing experiences from different regions around the Mediterranean, fostering future cooperation projects among specialists from Southern Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. It will showcase research and experiences through oral presentations and posters, covering topics such as plant and ecological sciences, citizen science, ethnobotany, local involvement, and sustainable management of plant resources.

Join us in contributing to the conservation and sustainable use of plant richness in the Mediterranean.
