Zachary Ancona USGS |
PANELISTS: Erin Genia, MIT Doreen E. Martinez, Colorado State University Ronee Penoi, Emerson College This panel will focus on: The term “Decolonization” is used in many fields, but has made few inroads into ecosystem valuation and management. Indigenous communities often see natural resources and ES in ways that federal or state agencies are just coming to explore or know. It is crucial to build mutual respect and comprehension of these knowledges and practices to effectively and ethically incorporate values into policy and management. |
PANELISTS: Jennifer Grieser, Cleveland Metroparks Kevin Grieser, Biohabitats Ben Hartman, Baird & Associates This session will highlight three Lake Erie waterfront projects where built infrastructure enhances natural systems to build climate resilience. We will explore soft engineering techniques, from design to construction, and discuss installation, operations, and lessons learned. Additionally, we'll provide context by examining the history of Lake Erie’s waterfront urbanization, the harmful effects of habitat fragmentation, and the accelerating impacts of climate change. We’ll also examine public-private partnerships, policies, and funding strategies for reconnecting fragmented shorelines. |
