About
Lydia Olander, program director, will be a plenary closing speaker at the ACES: A Community on Ecosystem Services conference.
ACES: A Community on Ecosystem Services represents a dynamic and growing international assembly of professionals, researchers, and policy-makers involved with ecosystem services. The ACES Conference provides an open forum to share experiences, methods, and tools for assessing and incorporating ecosystem services into public and private decisions.
The goal of the conference is to link state-of-the-art science, practice, and decision making by bringing together the ecosystem services community and decision makers from around the United States and the globe. ACES will engage leaders in government, NGOs, academia, Native American tribes, and the private sector to advance the use of ecosystem services science and practice in resource management and other societal decisions.
