About This Webinar
Pass-through projects, where a land trust acquires land with the intention of another entity being the permanent owner, are a useful method of protecting land, but what does it take to accomplish them successfully? Christie Henderson (TennGreen), Jenny Katz (National Park Foundation), and Laura Bower and Kyle Shenk (The Conservation Fund) share their insights into what makes a good project and skills needed for success. Reggie Hall of Legacy Works Group will moderate a panel discussion so attendees can benefit from multiple perspectives.
Here’s a look at what we will cover:
Definition of “pass-through”.
Major steps in the pass-through projects.
Roles for land trusts of different sizes and means.
Project vetting process.
Common challenges, risks and barriers, and some solutions.
Skills and capacity needed for success.
This webinar is included in the 2024 All-Access Pass.
