Held on Sunday October 24, 2010 in Noosa, Queensland (Australia) the Biosphere Managers Workshop is designed to produce a series of case studies of UNESCO Biospheres as living examples of Education for Sustainable Development and Bioversity, in the current UN Decade and Year featuring these themes.

Keynote addresses will be provided by Dr. Natarajan Ishwaran the Director of Unesco's MAB program, Dr.David Bellamy international conservation authority and television presenter and key experts associated with the nomination of the Noosa and Great Sandy Biosphere Reserves.

The workshop will then develop a methodology for Biosphere managers to begin preparing case studies on their reserves, including full participation and discussion of comparative experience.  There will be a Field Trip to key points in the Noosa Biosphere and a dinner.
