Hi Hubbard Brook community,
I wanted to share a couple of upcoming opportunities that might be of interest:
- The first is a bystander intervention workshop this Friday, 11/13, from 3-6pm ET. From Marty Downs, "The LTER Network Office has engaged ADVANCE Geo to offer a workshop on bystander intervention. The training, which has been presented at several scientific societies to very positive reviews, will give participants the tools and confidence to recognize and interrupt instances of bias and harassment. Unlike many university and corporate trainings, the workshop facilitators are colleagues in Earth and environmental science and their approaches are useful even in remote field sites and in situations where the observer has no formal authority." Registration is limited, so please sign up ASAP if you'd like to attend:

- The second is this year's UNH Sidore Lecture Series, which is being held virtually and focusing on Indigenous sustainability. The first lecture, "Contemporary Indigenous Peoples of New Hampshire: Honoring Mother Earth through Sustainability," is on Monday, November 23, from 4-5:30 pm ET. The event is open to all:
