The Duke SAF Student Chapter presents the
6th Annual Forestry Symposium
Establishing Roots:
Incorporating Community Values into
Forest Management
"When we see
land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and
respect." - Aldo
Leopold, Forward to a
"Sand County Almanac"
Human
communities play a large part in all aspects of forest management. Whether
establishing a community forest project or adhering to criteria for third party
certification, forest managers are increasingly considering the surrounding
community in their management decisions. The 6th Annual Duke Forestry Symposium will provide
examples and tangible tools from managers in private, non-profit and government
sectors to balance management practices and community values. Please
join us for this very exciting day of presentations.
Mark your calendars for Friday, November
9th.
The event will take place from 9:00AM
until 3:00 PM in the Bryan Center at Duke University.
The event is FREE and open to the public,
but registration is required.
