WQGIT Submersion Series Session #3

Date and Time

Wednesday, January 31, 2024 from 11:00am - 12:30pm

Purpose

WQGIT Submersion Series

The Submersion Series is a quarterly discussion series hosted by the Water Quality Goal Implementation Team (WQGIT) to convene for exploratory, collaborative conversations on topics that rarely find sufficient time within our typical monthly meeting schedule. These conversations will seek to dive under the surface and challenge us to contribute and exchange ideas as partners with varied lived experiences.

The thoughts or questions expressed in this shared space are our own and do not necessarily reflect the views of our organizations, the WQGIT and its leadership, or the Bay Program.

The title for this third webinar is: Technical Assistance and Capacity at the Local Level.

Please join us for a webinar focused on local level capacity building in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Speakers from different perspectives and sectors from across the watershed will be presenting on the challenges, barriers, opportunities, and current actions in building and maintaining local capacity and technical assistance. The webinar will include time for questions and open discussion.

Participation expectations

Non-WQGIT members: All WQGIT meetings are public, and this event and discussion series is especially open to all who are interested in the subject matter and wish to contribute their time, thoughts or questions.

WQGIT members are encouraged to join, but this is outside of our normal meetings and there will be no decisions sought. If pertinent action items or next steps are identified they will be brought back to the WQGIT at a standing monthly meeting.

Minutes/notes will not be taken for this series.

Unlike normal WQGIT meetings, this series will be hosted and recorded via Zoom.

Please be advised: This series will be recorded with the intent to share the conversation with others (unlike standard meetings that are recorded only for internal accuracy of minutes/notes).
