An Interactive Evening to Build Capacity and Community on Sustainable Forest Management in our Headwaters.
Join CPAWS for a casual and conversational evening featuring acclaimed author and biologist Lorne Fitch, our Conservation Science and Programs Manager Josh Killeen, and our Executive Director Katie Morrison!
For those of you who’ve written letters, attended industry-led open houses, and are at your wit’s end — AKA, want to level up your understanding of and ability to influence forestry management in Southern Alberta — we warmly encourage you to attend!
Lorne Fitch, former Government of Alberta Fisheries Biologist, will read from his latest book, with copies available for purchase, while CPAWS Southern Alberta staff will present an update on the status of forestry in Southern Alberta, as well as exciting new tools they’ve designed in-house — and which are available to anyone for free — to support your advocacy journey.
They will also have new skill-building how-to guides as takeaway materials, which will help you and your community scale up your impact and become a “Forest Guardian.”
Josh Killeen, Lorne Fitch, and our Executive Director Katie Morrison will also be available to answer questions and chat with at this casual and conversational event.
If you have a burning question about Alberta’s forests, forest management, aquatic Species at Risk like our native trout, or our headwaters, please email communicationssab@cpaws.org with the subject line “March Forestry Event – Question for Event.”
