DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this summit was to convene a national network of women environmental leaders and local next-generation leaders for face-to-face discussions focused on the exchange of knowledge, wisdom, and experience. Specifically, the summit and community forum addressed the importance of mentorship, educational and career opportunities, and the multitude of ways in which leadership is enacted. Attendees explored issues of particular importance to their neighborhoods and the Anacostia River and formulated action steps to continue their efforts to improve their communities and local waterways.We are excited about the prospect of bringing together individuals from diverse backgrounds and concerns, including not-for-profit and community leaders, scholars, and activists to provide information and informed experience to benefit residents, researchers, and decision-makers.
