Maya Kocian (Executive Director) and Glen Delaney (Director of Partnerships) will attend this year’s National Conference on Ecosystem Restoration, an interdisciplinary event that brings together decision-makers, scientists, engineers, policy makers, planners, with partners in government, industry, NGOs, Tribes, academia, and practitioners.

This year’s theme, “Return on Investment” emphasizes how understanding the broader social benefits of restoration can guide future planning, funding, and implementation. Maya will facilitate a panel on how estimating the economic value of co-benefits can improve decision-making, expand funding, and support equitable and resilient projects.

We encourage those interested in developing and promoting nature-based solutions to register and reach out to Maya and Glen during the conference.
