Ano-Darwin 2009

During 2009, there were many celebrations associated with the second centenary of Charles Darwin’s birth and the 150 years of publication of his book The Origin of Species. During this period, a working group was created that established a website for the dissemination of activities related to the Year of Darwin 2009. This website has been deactivated, and its content is being kept as a historical archive of the event, on the site of ABFHiB.
