In this installment of the Connecting for Conservation webinar series, our goal was to share some much-needed warmth and levity – and useful information, too! – in light of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. We explored the power of stories to win support for conservation projects and how narratives can be framed in ways that capture the attention of the public.
The webinar featured storytellers Valerie Tutson and Luke Runyon.
