Adapting Together: Shaping the Future of Fire in the Northwest
Join Oregon State University, the Fire Adapted Communities Network, and partners for an engaging workshop to transform how we adapt and coexist with wildfire in light of dynamic ecological, social, and economic challenges. As new fire policies and adaptation strategies have grown across the Northwest, it is essential that we work together to learn, share, and craft actionable visions.
4th International Smoke Symposium (ISS4)
The purpose of this symposium is to once again convene air quality, fire professionals, health scientists, and smoke specialists from the research community, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), local/state/federal government agencies and tribes to discuss the state-of-the-science and state-of-the-applied-science for smoke management and addressing the air quality and public health impacts of
After the Flames Workshop
The After the Flames Conference and Workshop is a dynamic, solutions-driven event focused on post-fire recovery. It brings together wildfire-impacted communities, response agencies, and recovery experts to share practical tools, build partnerships, and drive real progress in restoring landscapes and building resilience.
International Fire Behaviour and Fuels Conference
Wildfires present an increasing challenge to humanity and the ecosystems and atmosphere we depend on. The ability of societies to respond to larger and more destructive wildfire events and mitigate against further climate impacts is also increasingly challenged.
