The symposium will focus on not only on the challenges but how through engagement, innovation and adaption, we are meeting the challenges.
We invite people involved in conservation, restoration, research, urban planning, education, community engagement, business, and human services to submit a presentation proposal highlighting your project or program in the Green-Duwamish Watershed and its shoreline sub-watersheds. This is an opportunity to connect with others involved in improving the ecological and community health across the watershed for our future.
The symposium is a one-day event, giving exposure and promoting the broad and diverse work being done throughout the watershed and the opportunity to network with individuals across fields (technical and non-technical), locations, cultures, organizations and settings. All the presentations are given in one large room, thus enabling everyone attending exposure to topics and individuals not within their normal purview.
