Successful landscape-scale land conservation projects can hinge on productive engagement across municipal, sectoral, and sometimes national boundaries, but these boundaries can also pose logistical challenges to planning and collaboration. In this presentation, ILCN Director Jim Levitt, will look at the role of international communities of conservation, share insights into the work of the International Land Conservation Network (ILCN), and explore examples of cross-boundary conservation in New England and Canada.
This is a hybrid event. Both virtual and in-person participants are welcome to join the hour-long presentation and Q&A. In-person participants are welcome to stay after for a casual networking session. All are welcome. Please bring your own lunch. Light snacks and coffee will be available.
In-person attendees can join us at the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy at 113 Brattle Street, Cambridge, MA, USA. There is no parking on site. Public transportation is recommended. We are about a five-minute walk from the Harvard Square Red Line stop and 1.2 miles from the Porter Square commuter rail station. You can also park at the University Place Garage in Harvard Square, which is a 5-10 minute walk from the Lincoln Institute offices.
This event is being put on by the Early Career Conservation Network, an interest group of the Massachusetts Land Trust Coalition whose mission is to provide networking and training opportunities for those in their first 10 years of a career in land conservation.
This presentation will be recorded.
