The objective of this event is to promote effective outreach to more diverse
audiences with birding opportunities, outdoor recreation, and conservation
messages. By sharing the great outdoors together, we will enhance our lives
AND promote a strong societal conservation ethic.
Who should come? Anyone that cares about birds and the birding community. The
conference will be ideal for nature centers’ staff, park departments, educators, birding
club members, and anyone else from the Midwest region that is interested in making a
difference for bird conservation and their fellow citizens.
We've assembled a stellar cast of panelists and presenters for the conference.
We welcome you to get involved and shape the future of birding!
We are seeking partners and sponsors to make our second Focus on Diversity:
Changing the Face of American Birding Conference another huge success.
