Colombia is one of the most biodiverse countries on earth. Practically every kind of ecosystem can be found within its borders. The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh’s Colombian research program aims to determine how historical processes have affected diversification in those ecosystems. We also aim to inform the public about Colombian biological and cultural diversity through multiple media.
