HEP Conference 2025: Ripple Effects: Local Actions for Estuary-Wide Change

This conference will explore how small-scale projects can play a pivotal role in shaping healthy watersheds. How can local actions ripple outward to influence policy, strengthen ecological resilience, and inspire transformative change estuary-wide?

Morning sessions will focus on urban habitat restoration and ecological connectivity, showcasing innovative approaches to revitalizing local environments.

Afternoon sessions will broaden the conversation to include green infrastructure, water quality improvements, public access and greenway development, and creative funding strategies.

Through dynamic panels, workshops, and case studies, participants will engage with leading experts and practitioners who are driving estuary-wide change through localized initiatives.
