Sept. 18 Webinar: Working With Rural Landowners On Voluntary Conservation, Research Results

Water Words that Work, Chesapeake Land And Water Initiative will host a webinar on September 18 starting at 1:00 p.m. to review the results of their research into Working With Rural Landowners On Voluntary Conservation.

Learn about the findings of our research on rural landowner outreach, from the perspective of some of the watershed’s top NGO, agency, and private sector outreach professionals.

Through survey and focus group results, this project provides new insights to help staff at soil conservation districts, land trusts, and other agency and NGO partners build and refine their outreach skills.

Findings from this research will also inform training workshops to be delivered later this fall in several watershed locations.

This project is a collaboration of Water Words that Work and the Chesapeake Land and Water Initiative, a partnership of the Chesapeake Bay Funders Network and the Land Trust Alliance.

The project is supported by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation Chesapeake Bay Stewardship Fund’s Technical Capacity Grants Program and funded in partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, as well as with support from the Foundation for Pennsylvania’s Watersheds.
