Successful annual conference
| Plenary Session |
On the ground conduct of soil and water conservation activities has changed dramatically over the past 40 years. Likewise, the many institutions created in support of soil and water conservation efforts have changed. Founders envisioned SWCS as an organization integral to success in soil and water conservation. How has SWCS measured up over the past four decades? What has been the relationship of SWCS to key partners in the movement? And what does SWCS experience portend for the future of the organization and the soil and water conservation movement alike?
Presentation by: Max Schnepf, former SWCS employee
Respondents:Deborah Cavanaugh-Grant, SWCS president, and Craig Cox, SWCS executive director
