Darwin Now is a global initiative celebrating the life and work of Charles Darwin and the impact his ideas about evolution continue to have on today’s world. The British Council’s international programme of activities will mark the bicentenary of Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary since the publication of his landmark work ‘On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection’.
