A few come to mind - a willingness to listen, empathy, making connections and collaborations, and being smart! Join us for breakout groups and lively discussion about skills that we should cherish and promote within ourselves! Attached is a paper that explores general skills for conservation.

Oral Story-Telling October 14, 2020 | 11 AM - 12 PM Eastern Time -------- Zoom Link: https://msu.zoom.us/j/94610796573 Meeting ID: 946 1079 6573 Passcode: 713354 -------- The Story Telling as a tool for the strengthening of local network, in rural communities. Rural communities, close to the National Parks, are often “far away” from all kinds of resources. Approaching them with strategies of recognising their own strengths, based in their own culture, stories, and mores; is a wonderful way of working with each community, based in their own genuine culture, for future “new ways” that will improve the community standard of life. Here's a peek at the rest of this month's upcoming WiNNsday sessions!
