Registration now open for 2025 Everglades Coalition Conference
The Floridant/10285284

STUART, Fla. - Floridant -- Registration is now open for the 40^th Annual Everglades Coalition Conference, hosted by the National Parks Conservation Association. The conference will take place from Jan. 30 through Feb. 1, 2025, at the Miccosukee Casino & Resort in Miami.

The Everglades Coalition, an alliance of nearly 60 local, state and national conservation and environmental organizations, hosts the conference each year to educate attendees about the progress on the full restoration of the Greater Everglades Ecosystem.

The theme of the upcoming event is Reflections on Progress and Opportunities. The three-day conference welcomes over 400 participants annually and is the largest forum for discussing the restoration of the Everglades, as well as challenges and future opportunities. Conservation groups, elected officials, business leaders, partners at the local, state and tribal levels, scientists and students attend the conference to further the discussion on restoring and protecting the Florida Everglades.

Much like a reflection on water, the coalition hopes that this year will provide a chance for participants to consider the past four decades of work, while also contemplating where the next four decades may take them. Panel topics will include community involvement; climate change; indigenous knowledge and perspectives; conservation partnerships; economic impacts; and reflections on progress. The first reflections on progress panel will feature past co-chairs.
