    About This Webinar

    You’ve joined the board of a land trust — wonderful! What’s next? What do you need to know to translate your passion for conservation into impactful participation in your new governance role? In this webinar, you’ll take a look under the hood to learn what land trusts do, how they do it and how you fit in. Connie Manes works as a consultant with the Land Trust Alliance providing education and capacity building services, in addition to her boots-on-the-ground role as an executive director of a small community land trust. Join her to learn the lingo, connect with colleagues and understand the rich diversity, responsibility and ongoing contribution of land trusts. 

    This webinar will cover: 

    • An overview of conservation work and how land trusts fit in. 

    • The lexicon of land conservation – common terms, acronyms and models of service. 

    • How board members work to accomplish their organizations’ missions and pointers on how new board members can establish their roles. 

    • Tools and resources for assistance, deeper understanding and staying connected.
