 /strong></p><p><strong><br /></strong>The Scientific Committee on Antarctic
  Research (SCAR)’s research programme Ant-ICON (Integrated Science to Infor
 m Antarctic and Southern Ocean Conservation) is pleased to announce an inte
 rdisciplinary workshop on <em>The Future of Antarctic and Southern Ocean Co
 nservation in a Changing Climate</em>.</p><p><strong>Date</strong>: 7-9 Jul

 ><p>This workshop aims to develop a roadmap providing the science needed to
  address Antarctic conservation priorities, focusing on those identified by
  the Committee for Environmental Protection (CEP). It seeks to strengthen t
 he science-policy interface and drive tangible conservation progress throug
 h interdisciplinary collaboration between social and natural sciences.</p><
