SUMMARY:Climate Change Kid Lawyer Camp!
DESCRIPTION:This is a great opportunity for middle schoolers (grades 6-8) to learn about law by doing it – using the Juliana kid climate case\, just argued by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals\, as a model. Young people can take parts as appellate lawyers for the kid plaintiffs or for the government defendants\, or if they prefer they can choose media roles as reporters or photographers. Experienced practitioners will guide them through climate science\, the federal government and justice systems\, the interesting legal doctrines in this case\, how to construct and deliver an argument\, how to capture images for maximum impact and how to interview people and write articles. This is a fun and empowering way to learn how the legal process works from different perspectives. Scholarships are available through Saturday Academy.

SUMMARY:Exploitation and Empathy: Navigating the Dynamics between Donors\, Staff\, and Program Participants
DESCRIPTION:Since the term “poverty porn” first appeared in 1981\, much has been said about the exploitation of human suffering to inspire charitable giving. Yet four decades later\, many organizations still struggle to communicate their impact in a way that authentically represents the issue and preserves the dignity of those affected by it. How do we portray our program participants as their own agents of change\, while admitting that they also need our help? How do we emotionally connect funders to our clients\, without simplifying their challenges or minimizing cultural differences? \nIn a refreshing take on this provocative issue\, Caliopy Glaros of Philanthropy without Borders invites attendees to move beyond lexicon and imagery\, to embrace methods that both challenge assumptions and inspire empathy. Drawing from her experience in international donor travel as well as research from social psychology\, she provides an innovative approach to building capacity for empathy while motivating others to action. \nAttendees will leave this session with a new means of evaluating interactions between donors\, staff\, and program participants\, as well as tools they can begin implementing right away.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister below to reserve your seat at this fantastic event!

SUMMARY:Bark Base Camp
DESCRIPTION:For two decades\, Bark has worked to create opportunities for people to experience the forest firsthand and to learn about the flora\, fauna\, rivers & meadows\, as well as the threats posed by industrial logging. Bark’s boots-on-the-ground approach strengthens our advocacy and legal tactics and has helped us save countless special places across the Mt. Hood National Forest. This August\, we invite you to join us again in the forest to continue this work while we celebrate your tenacity in defending & protecting Mt. Hood National forests for the last 20 years! This year at Base Camp\, we will not only document the threats to the forest\, but also set a course toward a better future for this ecosystem that supports us all. \nStaff & volunteers will host a family-friendly group camp in a free\, undeveloped site in Mt. Hood National Forest. Base Camp is open to all who wish to join for any length of time\, even if just for one day. Campers support Bark’s work by volunteering to gather critical information about current and past logging projects\, document potential beaver habitat\, swap stories over shared meals\, and much more. As we spend time together in the forest\, we will build connections to environmental\, social\, and other place-based movements.

SUMMARY:Bird Safe Portland: Developing a Bird‐friendly Buildings and Dark Sky Campaign
DESCRIPTION:The National Conservation Training Center (NCTC) in collaboration with the Urban Wildlife Conservation Program (UWCP) is pleased to announce its third webinar\, sponsored by the Urban Bird Treaty Program (UBT Program). This webinar series is open to all who are interested in participating\, so\, please forward to your own partner networks. \nSPEAKER: Mary Coolidge\, Portland Audubon \nDESCRIPTION: Up to 1 billion birds die in window collisions every year in the United States alone\, at all scales of development\, from single family residential to low rise commercial buildings to high rises. Moreover\, light pollution from artificial light at night contributes not only to collisions in migrating bird populations\, but impacts behavior\, movement\, reproduction in many wildlife species. Today\, over a dozen North American cities have developed Bird Safe Building standards\, including San Francisco\, San Jose\, Oakland\, Portland and Toronto\, paving the way for similar efforts in other municipalities. Many cities\, counties and states are also implementing sustainability initiatives to address climate change and reduce energy-efficiency demands\, which presents opportunities to integrate lights out and dark skies initiatives that protect the ecological function of our cities at night. Portland has been a UBT City since 2003\, and Audubon’s Bird Safe Program has been generously funded by a National Fish & Wildlife Foundation grant to educate the public as well as architects\, landscape architects\, designers\, planners\, and elected officials about these issues to ensure that we are designing our built landscape for ecological resilience into the future. From data collection and development of a voluntary Resource Guide\, to legislative advocacy to integrate Bird Safe measures into the city of Portland’s Green Building Policy and zoning code\, we have been on this road for a while. We will discuss the tactics\, best practices\, resources\, collaborations and key stakeholders used to develop an urban hazard reduction campaign.\n————————————————— \nThe UWCP webinar series is intended as a resource for conservation professionals (i.e.\, biologists\, educators\, communicators\, interpreters\, law enforcement officers\, and natural resource managers) in the Service and in partner organizations who seek innovative community-based solutions for wildlife conservation. This webinar series aims to support the diverse work of its members\, who work to establish and strengthen relationships with urban audiences to protect and conserve our wildlife resources\, by taking a “deeper dive” into a variety of topics identified during the 2018 “Community Connections Academy”. Webinars will showcase successful approaches\, tools\, and resources used by members to advance progress in reaching the goals established in the UWCP\nStandards of Excellence. This series also provides a venue to share experiences and connect with others in the UWCP community.\n————————————————— \nWEBEX INFORMATION \nTo REGISTER for the event\, click here. \nThe playback of UCF (Universal Communications Format) rich media files requires appropriate players. To view this type of rich media files in the meeting\, please check whether you have the players installed on your computer by going to https://doilearn2.webex.com/doilearn2/onstage/systemdiagnosis.php \nRecordings of previous UWCP webinars can be found in the NCTC Video Gallery at: The Urban Wildlife Conservation Program Webinar Series. \n——————————————————-\nFor Webex assistance\, contact NCTC WebEx Host 4\, Shannon Connors\, send a message to  shannon_m_connors@fws.gov

SUMMARY:Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)
DESCRIPTION:The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program supports active research participation by undergraduate students in any of the areas of research funded by the National Science Foundation. REU projects involve students in meaningful ways in ongoing research programs or in research projects specifically designed for the REU program. This solicitation features two mechanisms for support of student research: (1) REU Sites are based on independent proposals to initiate and conduct projects that engage a number of students in research. REU Sites may be based in a single discipline or academic department or may offer interdisciplinary or multi-department research opportunities with a coherent intellectual theme. Proposals with an international dimension are welcome. (2) REU Supplements may be included as a component of proposals for new or renewal NSF grants or cooperative agreements or may be requested for ongoing NSF-funded research projects. \nWho May Submit Proposals: \nThe categories of proposers eligible to submit proposals to the National Science Foundation are identified in the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide(PAPPG)\, Chapter I.E. \nWho May Serve as PI: \nFor REU Site proposals\, a single individual may be designated as the Principal Investigator. This individual will be responsible for overseeing all aspects of the award. However\, one additional person may be designated as Co-Principal Investigator if developing and operating the REU Site would involve such shared responsibility. Other anticipated research supervisors should be listed as Non-Co-PI Senior Personnel. After a proposal is awarded\, some NSF units may allow the addition of more Co-PIs if an exceptional case can be made for why the management of the REU Site must be distributed. \nLimit on Number of Proposals per Organization: \nThere are no restrictions or limits on the number of proposals per organization except forthe following: NSF Centers or National Facilities managed by NSF’s Division of Materials Research (DMR) that have an active REU Site may not request additional support for a new Site or an expansion of their existing Site. (For questions\, e-mail reu.dmr@nsf.gov.) \nRead more here: https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19582/nsf19582.htm?WT.mc_id=USNSF_25&WT.mc_ev=click
