What does ecology mean to you? Why does it need ‘queering?’ Join us for an introduction and discussion on Queer Ecologies. Our panelists will explore the interdisciplinary applications Queer Ecologies has in natural resources. We will discuss what it means to integrate queer ecological practices into environmental and conservation work. Any and all are welcome to attend!
