We are excited to continue our Green-Duwamish Watershed Workshop program which has been on hiatus for the past several years due to Covid. Our workshops are designed to not only educate, build awareness but also foster collaboration across sectors which meeting in person achieves. This is the first time we've been able to meet in one large room to learn and discuss the health of our watershed's tributaries and their communities.
As our region is growing and changing, more pressure is being placed on our rivers' tributaries, which are critical to river health but also to the ecosystems which they support. Creeks, streams and ditches are an important part of the many challenges watersheds and communities face while also offering significant opportunities as we reimagine our relationship with them.
This workshop's purpose is to provide new insights and perspectives on tributary management, connections with communities which foster stewardship and in turn support the environmental health of the watershed. The first part of the workshop will be presentations about different aspects of tributaries, with the second half offering individual group discussions on topics of rising interest and importance. Attendees are encouraged to freely join the different discussion groups at will, sharing information, ideas and collaborative opportunities. Attendees will also be invited to attend tours of several local creeks being scheduled in summer and fall to view and discuss each unique creek.
We invite people involved in conservation, restoration, research, urban planning, education, community engagement, business, and human services in the Green-Duwamish Watershed and other watersheds to attend. This is an opportunity to connect with others involved in improving the ecological and community health across watersheds for our future.
The forum is for professionals, academics, community members and stakeholders to exchange information regarding the watershed, crossing all professions and sectors. If you would like to be included in our mailing list, please email your contact information to info@duwamishalive.org, we only use this to notify you of the symposium/workshops.
Attendees will be offered guided tours of several creeks later in the year for:
