The second-annual Kildare Biodiversity Conference will take place in the Keadeen Hotel in Newbridge next month.
Kildare County Council (KCC) has announced the return of the Kildare Biodiversity Conference for 2024.
Commenting further on the announcement, KCC said: "The inaugural conference took place last October; a first of its kind, sold-out event organised by Kildare Wildlife Rescue in partnership with KCC.
"This event is funded by the Local Biodiversity Action Fund, which is operated by the National Parks and Wildlife Service of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage."
KCC added: "The conference will bring together specialist individuals and expert groups, showcasing the wide range of work, ongoing in the realm of ecology, nature and biodiversity, across County Kildare."
Dan Donoher, Manager of Kildare Wildlife Rescue and organiser of the event, also chimed in: "By bringing together passionate individuals and organizations invested in biodiversity, we hope to foster collaboration, inspire innovation, and ultimately make a positive impact on the ground for our wildlife and natural habitats."
In addition, Dr Meabh Boylan, KCC's Biodiversity Officer, also said: "We are delighted to be able to run this event again.
"Last year was a fantastic day of learning, networking and inspiration for the individuals, community groups and organisations in attendance."
She added: "We are aiming for even bigger and better this year, which I am sure we will achieve, with the fantastic Kildare Wildlife Rescue team at the helm."
The Kildare Biodiversity Conference 2024 will take place on Saturday, October 19.
