Birding to Change the World: A Conservation Civics Event

Buy a book. Meet the author. Change the world!

Join Trish O’Kane, author of Birding to Change the World: A Memoir, and Connie O’Connor, Director of Applied Learning at Cincinnati Nature Center, as they discuss the importance of connecting with others to protect what we love.

O’Kane’s book is a memoir which intertwines birding with community collective action as she describes how a group of diverse nature enthusiasts successfully protected a park slated for development in a lower-income neighborhood. Her story is one of strangers becoming friends while engaging at a civic level for a shared conservation goal.

O’Kane and O’Connor will consider lessons learned from this experience and invite the audience to explore ideas for building more trust and goodwill within their own communities. Join us for an empowering and inspiring evening and learn why Cincinnati Nature Center promotes Conservation Civics, a relationship-based approach to protect our environment and conserve our natural resources.

Preregistration required. Member adult $20; nonmember adult $32.
