May 12–15, 2026
Pace, Scale, and Durability
You’re invited! Our popular week-long conference will take place from May 12-15, 2026 in San Francisco, online, and all around the Bay Area. Practitioners, learners, and professionals working towards climate resilience and equity are invited to join us for this regional gathering with keynote speakers, deep-dive breakouts, field trips, and abundant opportunities to connect with your peers.
This year’s conference theme will center on Pace, Scale, and Durability. We are going to get tactical and practical about how we move at the appropriate speed, right-size the scope and scale of our work, and build the relationships and interconnections for resilience and transformation. Anytime we’re working in service of healthy lands and people, there are a lot of dynamics to juggle from deadlines to trust-building, change at systemic levels to change in the weeds (literally), and sustainability for years to come. We’re excited to dive in, and can’t wait to see you there.
