LYON, France, July 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- The 5th
World Life Science Forum, BioVision, will take place from
March 11th to 14th, 2007 in Lyon (France). BioVision is a
unique international platform that aims to facilitate
dialogue, debates and set up proposals for actions on
challenging issues related to Life Sciences. It gathers
representatives from science, political leaders, industry,
NGOs and society at large. The Forum contributes to a
better understanding of the opportunities and risks linked
to scientific achievements and their applications in
health, agriculture, nutrition and environment.
This 5th edition of BioVision will focus on "The
Contribution of Life Sciences to the Millennium Development
Goals". Thus, out of the eight Millennium Goals adopted
in 2000, fight poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy,
environmental damage and discrimination against women, six
are directly related to Life Sciences.
BioVision to BioAction: BioVision is setting up a new
form of architecture both upstream and downstream of the
Forum in order to translate concrete operational projects.
Upstream, a series of Pre-conferences are organised
throughout 2006. Led by different partners, associating
international experts in each of this field covered, the
meetings will enable to explore and develop one of nine
topics within the three core areas of Health,
Agriculture/Nutrition and Environment related to Millennium
Development Goals.
The results of the discussions will be summarized in
reports, which will serve to both set the basis for
discussions and speed up the adoption of conclusions to
ensure the Forum translates into concrete operational
projects.
Topics, agenda and first Pre-conferences reports are
available: http://www.biovision.org/preconf_uk.htm
Downstream, the "World Foundation for Life
Sciences" has been created to provide the financial
means required for the implementation of the operational
projects born from the conclusions of the Forum.
