The Hagenstein Lectures - Emerging Voices in Forestry
2016-10-09 13:00 - 17:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Miller Hall at the World Forestry Center, 4033 SW Canyon Rd., Portland, OR, 97221, United States
Welcome the new leaders working at the forefront of social, economic, and environmental change. Craft beer, wine, food, new friends, provocative ideas, great conversation.
The Hagenstein Lectures is a new, exciting, high-profile public outreach initiative led by the World Forestry Center and the Society of American Foresters to honor the legacy and memory of professional forester William D. Hagenstein, who died in Portland at age 99 in 2014.
The Hagenstein Lectures brings together influential young urban professionals who are deeply concerned about the future of the world’s forests with fascinating, forward-thinking guest speakers (under the age 45) who are working on the ground in forests around the world. By combining their “Emerging Voices,” we intend to create a robust and ongoing local-global conversation about real opportunities to advance sustainable forestry in the 21st century. The Hagenstein Lectures are intended to be a catalyst for action.
