Collaborative Conservation in Practice: Innovations in Communities around the World

This semester's CCC seminar and discussion series will focus on the work that the CCC's Collaborative Conservation Fellows habe been doing across the Western U.S. and around the world. We aim to develop a lively 'community of practice', and the format for the series provides ample time for discussion of major challenges and emerging issues in collaborative conservation.

** This series is brown bag and open to the public. Please feel free to bring your lunch. **
