Virtual Workshop:

Being Part of the Solution: Effectively Communicating Leave No Trace 

Thursday, September 16, 2021

6:30 pm - 8:30 pm Central

Tired of seeing your favorite nature places being "loved to death" by heavy use, carelessness, or uninformed visitors? You can gently but effectively help others learn both how and why to change their behavior to help protect outdoor spaces. This interactive virtual workshop -- offered through a partnership between the Minnesota Master Naturalist program and the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics -- will equip you with ideas, examples, and explanations you can use in informal conversations at home and out on the trail to help everyone know and do the right things for nature. 

Subaru/Leave No Trace 团队提供经过验证的、以研究为基础的技能、教育和技巧，有效地与游客沟通，让他们了解如何以环境可持续的方式进行户外活动。 

研讨会主题

• 无痕原则、实践和道德概述： 通过互动活动和讨论，参与者将探索无痕实践重要性背后的 方法和原因。
• 有效沟通：我们说什么与我们怎么说同样重要，有效的沟通是打破反对障碍的关键，也是为游客提供一个能够接受我们信息的空间的关键。
• 资源的权威：这项技术由乔治-华莱士博士首创，是一种行之有效的改变游客行为的常规方法，它不再强调监管，而是强调自然世界的教育。参与者将讨论对当地的影响，并为游客提供清晰、简洁和有针对性的社会和生态理由，以帮助游客避免这些影响。

*鼓励与会者参加在线活动。
