Join San Diego Botanic Garden for a unique opportunity to learn about two countries often covered in the news, but not always well understood. Ukraine and Armenia are known not only for their fascinating histories and complex present-day realities, but also for their spectacular landscapes and exotic flora. This event welcomes an impressive roster of presenters from both regions, including the directors from Lviv Botanical Garden in Ukraine and Yerevan Botanical Garden in Armenia. Each will introduce their country’s unique profile, and showcase photos and descriptions of the native flora and related environmental challenges they are faced with. They will also discuss the key roles of their gardens in preserving biodiversity and delivering public education programs, and will highlight an exciting collaboration with U.S. colleagues currently underway. Andriy Prokopiv of Lviv Botanical Garden will also discuss current wartime conditions in Ukraine, and how botanical gardens there are striving to provide services to millions of internal refugees and traumatized veterans.
