This year, the meeting's main theme will revolve around the usefulness of IUCN criteria to assess endangerment, with an especial focus on oceanic islands.   We believe your participation would greatly help enrich the discussions from the point of view of marine biodiversity. We welcome critical approaches to the subject, stressing the possible contribution of relevant information to complement (or help fine-tune) IUCN criteria, and/or alternative approaches.  Prospectively, the meeting will take place on November 27-28 (pending on the final approval of dates by our Minister of Environment), so we'd greatly appreciate your readily indicating us whether you have disponibility and willingness to participate.  The meeting venue will be the Jardín Botánico canario "Viera y Clavijo"-Unidad Asociada CSIC of the Cabildo de Gran Canaria (http://www.jardincanario.org). Needless to say, your travel expenses to Gran Canaria, and all the aspects of your stay would be covered by the funds of the Chair during the meeting days.  I'm copying this message to Prof. David Bramwell (chair), to Prof. Ricardo Haroun (associate to the chair through the ULPGC), and to Mr. Juan Manuel López Ramírez (associate director of communication and education of the chair)  Looking forward to hearing from you,  With all best wishes,  Juli  --  ************************************************************************************************************ Dr. Juli Caujapé Castells  Head Dept. of Molecular Biodiversity & DNA bank Jardin Botanico Canario "Viera y Clavijo"-Unidad Asociada CSIC Cabildo de Gran Canaria,  Associate Director of Research UNESCO chair for the conservation of Plant diversity in Macaronesia and the West of Africa Cabildo de Gran Canaria.
