Dr. Rodrigo Gámez Lobo was founder and former Director General and President of the National Biodiversity Institute (INBio). "Our real goal is to make the society come to the understanding that, because of being something that directly affects quality of life, materially, intellectually and spiritually, we must preserve at all costs the rich biodiversity of the country", he says in his book "On Biodiversity, People and Utopias" (1999). Dr. Erick Mata Montero will introduce Dr. Gámez.
