Climate Toolkit Webinar 18: Climate Research and Outreach
2026-02-25 13:00 - 14:00 (America/New_York)
Wednesday, February 25, 1 – 2 p.m. ET – R.S.V.P. to Attend
Our understanding of the climate crisis is dynamic. As cultural institutions, it’s imperative to be working alongside the latest climate research to enhance public understanding and amplify the most effective solutions – now and as the climate continues to change.
Co-presented with the Organization of Biological Field Stations (OBFS), this upcoming webinar on Climate Research and Outreach aims to highlight cross-institutional collaborations between higher education, cultural organizations, and research field stations. We’ll hear from Holden Forests and Gardens, Hiram College, and the University of Akron Field Station on forming regional partnerships and engaging the public with the latest climate change research.
Join us virtually on Wednesday, February 25, 1 – 2 p.m. ET to learn about the ways we can amplify each other’s work, partner together, and collaborate on initiatives to better support effective science communication and impactful climate action.
Please R.S.V.P. and once registered, you’ll receive a Zoom link to virtually attend.
We look forward to having you with us!
