The UPIB-EDC Biodiversity Hub will allow wildlife enthusiasts to experience our biodiversity like never before. One of the main attractions of the Biodiversity Hub is the UPIB-EDC BINHI Threatened Species Arboretum. Established in 2014, the arboretum houses 70 species of endangered indigenous trees while also serving as a gene and seed bank for endangered flora. Additionally, the Vertebrate Museum, the UPIB Jose Vera Santos Memorial Herbarium, and birdwatching with UP Wild give visitors a sense of our nation’s distinctive biodiversity. The 96 tree species EDC BINHI has saved since its founding and the flora and wildlife found in EDC sites will also be included in the Biodiversity Hub.
