Congress Location and theme
The 21st Congress of the International Primatological Society will
be held in Entebbe, Uganda from the 25th to the 30th of June
2006. The meeting's theme, Primate Conservation in Action,
reflects three broad interests: 1) the need for a forum for primate
researchers, conservation practitioners, and students to get
together to exchange recent information in the field of
primatology; 2) the need for the society to actively contribute to
the conservation of primates around the globe and 3) the desire
for a congress to support and encourage conservation efforts in
the country and region in which it is held.
