The Universidad San Francisco de Quito has previously organized World Summits on Evolution I and II which have promoted the exchange of ideas among outstanding researchers working in the different branches and aspects of biology. World Summit on Evolution III will focus on the importance of evolution for humanity and our planet.
Human activities such as agriculture, medicine, industry, urbanization and tourism are leaving behind a footprint on many organisms, and these may lead to unexpected consequences for humanity and the environment. The understanding of these interactions and responses is critical to both avoid and manage nature and health-related complications.
The Galapagos Islands are a unique setting for this debate not only because of their importance in evolutionary science and historical connections to Charles Darwin but also for their incomparable landscape scenery and unique biota.

Hosting & Travel Guidelines
Universidad San Francisco de Quito invites you to be part of the III World Summit on Evolution that will be held in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, June 01 to 05, 2013.
This page provides you with guidelines to make your travel arrangements. Please, remember that you also need to register online to be part of this special meeting.
The summit will be held at the town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, in one of the most beautiful islands of the Galapagos: San Cristóbal Island. You can visit the map here.
If you wish to make your own arrangements, you need to:
- Be in the city of Quito or the city of Guayaquil (mainland Ecuador) by May 31st, 2013.
- Arrange accommodation for the night of May 31st in Quito/Guayaquil. Find below a list of links to hotels in Quito and Guayaquil.
- Arrange flights from Quito/Guayaquil to the town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, San Cristobal Island (Galapagos, Ecuador) on the 1st of June and returning flight on June 5th to Quito/Guayaquil.
- Arrange accommodations on the town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, San Cristobal (Galapagos, Ecuador) during your stay, June 1 – June 5, 2013 in the type of hotel of your preference. There is limited space available in San Cristobal at all times so it is better to make reservations right away. You can find a list of links to hotels in San Cristobal at end of this document. If you are a student of postdoc you may apply for homestay within a local family at San Cristobal (see right column).
- If you wish to be part of a one-day-tour in San Cristobal on June 3rd, please let us know as soon as possible of your interest so we can include you in this plan. At present we are making arrangements and will get back to you later with schedule, program and cost of this event.
