In the modern era, they are increasingly important as sources of bioactive compounds for pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and sustainable agriculture. However, these valuable resources face pressing challenges, including habitat loss, overharvesting, genetic erosion, and the impacts of climate change.<\/p><p>The symposium aims to bring together scientists, breeders, conservationists, and practitioners from around the world to exchange knowledge and experiences on the sustainable utilization, genetic resource management, and innovative cultivation of medicinal and aromatic plants. By fostering collaboration across disciplines, the symposium seeks to enhance biodiversity conservation, promote value-added uses, and strengthen the global network for advancing research and development in this vital sector.<\/p><p><strong>Theme:\u00a0<em>Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, Diversity and Innovation: Wellness Comes to Bloom<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e111d5 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2e111d5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cc501cd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"cc501cd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-80908d8 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"80908d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;slideInLeft&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #29ab8d;\">WHERE<br \/><\/span>Udon Thani, Thailand<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4173c01 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"4173c01\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3556f1e elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3556f1e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;slideInLeft&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #29ab8d;\">WHEN<br \/><\/span>November 24\u201327, 2026<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABOUT MAP 2026 The International Symposium on Utilization and Cultivation of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants\u00a0 &amp; VII International Symposium on Plant Genetic Resources and Breeding Research on Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (MAP2026) will be held from November 24 to 27, 2026, in Udon Thani, Thailand, in conjunction with the Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo 2026.
