Webinar Title: Protecting the Places We Love: Conservation Strategies for Entrusted Lands and Parks

Description: Protecting special places in danger of being changed forever requires urgent action. It’s time for bold conservation strategies to boost land protection around the world. Bold conservation goals require strategic action.

In this presentation, conservationist and geospatial designer Breece Robertson will discuss the vision, strategies, and resources laid out in her new book Protecting the Places We Love: Conservation Strategies for Entrusted Lands and Parks. The goals of these strategies are familiar: support species, habitats, and natural resources and healthy, livable communities that are climate resilient and socially cohesive, all without high costs. To achieve this vision, Robertson shares how to:

• create maps that tell compelling stories to stakeholders and the public
• analyze park system equity and access and show the economic benefits
• map, model, and analyze land characteristics to enhance biodiversity, connectivity, and climate resilience
• use maps and data to gain insights for fundraising, program initiatives, policy, advocacy, finances, and marketing.

Robertson offers a vision for success and clear guidance for conservation groups large and small to achieve their goals. With smart analysis and targeted action, our community can identify places needing protection and better understand how to maximize partnerships, inspire, educate, and engage communities and donors, and produce better results.
