O dia internacional do Fascínio das Plantas, foi instituído pela EPSO – European Plant Science Organization em 2012, para celebrar a vida magnifica da plantas, bem como a importância destes seres para a vida no planeta terra. Em Angola, embora a data já tenha sido celebrada de alguma forma, foi o Departamento de Ciências da Natureza do ISCED-Huíla que pela primeira vez, organizou e inscreveu o evento no site da organização, sedeado em Bruxelas, Bélgica. Este ano o evento decorrerá sob o tema – Paisagismo e Conservação do Ambiente, contará com vários eventos em formato de conferência e actividades ao ar livre, como: jardinagem, plantação de árvores e também visitas guiadas.

The Event will take place in the future facilities of the Botanical Garden of the University Campus of Universidade Agostinho Neto, with a focus on the Plantation of 10 Seedlings of Adansonia digitata L, 10 Sterculia quinqueloba Garcke, 8 Euphorbia conspicua NEBR  e 8 Moringa oleifera Lam

The choice of these plants is based on their Botanical, Ecological, cultural and medicinal value. They are species of easy cultivation, do not require special treatment, are native to the place and are fast growing. They provide shade, food fruit and form part of the ornamentation of the area reserved for the future facilities of the Botanical Garden of the University Campus.
