River Rally 2018
River Network, a hub for engaging people from across watersheds, is hosting their annual River Rally from April 29th through May 2nd in Olympic Valley, California. River Rally “is a national conference for river and water champions.” River Rally’s goal is to connect people from different industries, organizations, and academia to come together in the cause for “rivers and water issues” as well as create leaders to sustain the movement. The 2018 program includes workshops, field trips, speakers, and networking events that center around water conservation and watershed protection. The five workshop themes are:
- Reconnecting to Rivers Through Restoration and Recreation
- Mobilizing Change Through Policy, Advocacy, and Civic Engagement
- Making Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Real
- Expanding Impact Through Science, Technology, and Monitoring
- Sustaining Strong Leaders, Organizations, and Coalitions
Scholarships to attend are also available (applications due on February 1st).
