Purpose and audience

• The congress brings together research, traditional communities, organizations, and public managers around conservation, ethics, and biocultural governance.
• Academic science, management traditions, and public regulation meet in respectful, transparent dialogue.
• The central focus is the preservation of Banisteriopsis caapi and the cultural and ecological contexts that sustain this heritage.
• This is a public-interest, cooperation initiative — not a marketplace for products or services.
