Large Landscape Conservation Workshop

The national workshop will focus on knowledge-building and knowledge-sharing of specific practices, tools, policies, and capacities that facilitate the start-up, management, and assessment of successful large landscape conservation efforts. Through a series of plenary sessions, smaller symposia and workshops, and carefully constructed and facilitated dialogues on key topics, participants will experience the full breadth of large landscape programs, science, governance structures, performance measures, education and outreach, and the challenges and opportunities ahead. The workshop format will be designed to identify and develop content that will be directly applicable to landscape conservation partnerships and initiatives across the continent. The workshop will convene senior administrators and policy-makers to point the way for the future, addressing a number of critical questions facing the large landscape conservation community.
