Collaborating Conversations
Peer to Peer Exchange for Conservation Practitioners: Tips, Tools and Techniques During Covid-19
The Center for Collaborative Conservation and Western Collaborative Conservation Network are excited to launch Collaborating Conversations starting November 19th, 2020.
Collaborating Conversations create space during COVID-19 for conservation practitioners to:
- build social and professional connections,
- sharpen collaboration skills, and
- co-learn and problem solve with peers.
Each conversation will start with social interaction time, followed by a facilitated discussion guided by a theme or topical question to help members of collaboratives problem solve, share lessons, identify approaches or techniques, discuss challenges and needs, or demonstrate tools or techniques to get them through these challenging time. Themes and topics will be designed for a single conversation or may continue over several dates.

Emerging Leaders Peer-Learning Session #1:
Identifying Goals, Needs and Opportunities for the Next Generation of Conservationists
Emerging Leaders is an ongoing effort of the Western Collaborative Conservation Network with the goal of enabling the next generation of collaborative leaders across the American West. We envision a future in which a broad and inclusive network of diverse leaders are working together with communities to steward Western landscapes.
You are invited to join us as we begin to build this network through a series of virtual peer learning sessions that will connect emerging leaders in collaborative conservation with mentors, resources, and one another.
Facilitators: Daniel Anderson & Chelsea Phillippe
