2024 SUMMIT
February 20 - 22 • Arlington, VA
Conservation Without Conflict continues to grow as a unified voice for voluntary and collaborative wildlife conservation on working lands across America. Join us at our 2024 Coalition Summit as we learn more about best practices for collaborative conservation, explore innovative ways to achieve landscape-scale collaboration, and build new knowledge about the connections between collaborative conservation on working lands and the many ecological, social, and cultural co-benefits that flow from these initiatives. The registration fee to attend this year’s Summit is $400.00 and includes the welcome reception/dinner on Tuesday, February 20, morning and afternoon snacks and beverages each day, and lunch on Wednesday.

Summit Purpose
Our purpose is to pivot from identity-formation and planning to capacity-building and action. We have built a strong foundation for C w/o C to take concrete actions toward our shared goal. To ensure that we use our limited resources to achieve the greatest impact on the ground, we need you to be a part of this transition from planning and process to action and advancement.
Executive Director Leo Miranda-Castro will deliver a detailed proposal for the future path of the coalition to build capacity, to expand its services, and to launch a sustainable strategy and action plan to achieve greater voluntary collaboration across America’s working lands. We will collectively assess the future value proposition for Conservation Without Conflict, incorporating your feedback into the long-term strategic priorities and next steps of the coalition.
Expected Outcomes
- Celebrate accomplishments: success stories, best practices, advocacy achievements, new coalition members, expanding our community, and develop our strategic plan;
- Shared understanding of proposed future value proposition for Conservation Without Conflict;
- Open forums for coalition members to make their voices heard about what they need from C w/o C to catalyze the growing shift toward voluntary and collaborative wildlife conservation;
- Formulation of key deliverables and measures of success for identified strategic priorities; and
- Opportunities for coalition members to connect after a more than 3-years hiatus, to hear from a variety of keynote speakers, and to deepen their engagement with the coalition.
