Academy Theme: Advancing Wildlife Viewing:  Possibilities, Pathways, and Practices!

The Academy offers practical and insightful learning sessions to help practitioners in the planning and delivery of wildlife viewing and nature tourism-related programs. Sessions are designed to be engaging to ensure participants come away with ideas, tools, or skills that they can bring back to their organizations.

Focus areas highlight topics of interest in this community of practice but are not designed to be limiting. Presentation proposals may overlap multiple focus areas.

1. Interpretation and Engagement
2. Human Dimensions
3. Diversity and Inclusion
4. Environmental Ethics
5. Marketing, Advertising, and Tourism
6. Performs Other Duties as Assigned
 

All presenters are encouraged to:
· include descriptions of best practices and lessons learned and provide enough “how to” details for members of the audience to be able to determine whether a similar approach or program might be possible in their home state.
· emphasize skills and take homes that are broadly relevant in the Wildlife Viewing and Nature Tourism arena and, as much as possible, applicable across state lines.
