Session Guidelines
Workshop sessions will be 75 minutes, with at least 20 minutes reserved for questions and discussion. Formats can be classroom-style presentations, panels, or roundtable discussions. While case examples are welcome, the case information should be useful to the broader conservation community.

Proposals are welcome on any topic, and we especially welcome proposals on equity and access and centering the voices of marginalized communities, as well as development topics.

Please propose no more than three presenters for a single workshop. If you plan for two or more presenters, we highly encourage different organizations to be represented so attendees can hear varied perspectives.
