Workshops

Across 2021-2023, the RCN is holding a series of collaborative workshops designed to bring the community of people monitoring native bees together to discuss key elements of a national monitoring strategy. These workshops feature a series of speakers with experience on focal topics, with time for group discussions inspired by the talks. The workshops will follow a path (outlined below) that leads with learning about other monitoring programs and developing clear conservation outcomes, followed by workshops that tackle additional components of a national strategy, including data management, sampling protocols, and establishing priority areas in the US for monitoring.
