Themes and Sessions

During the Rally you will be able to choose sessions which will cover a range of core and advanced skills in topics that were identified in a survey we conducted, and honoring interests expressed by community members, we are offering sessions in the following six themes. 

• Theme 1: Conservation Standards (CS) Guidance and Tools

• Theme 2: Enhancing the Capacity of Coaches & Strengthening Our Network

• Theme 3: Building Organizational Capacity (Maintaining/Adopting the CS)

• Theme 4: Planning with Indigenous & Local Peoples and Community-Based Resource Management

• Theme 5: Protected Area Management

• Theme 6: Knowledge, Technology, & Skills for the Emerging Future

These themes are meant to show the breadth of the session topics and not meant to limit participants to stay within a theme throughout the Rally.
