This includes plant-pollinator interdependency and long-term ecosystem sustainability; why holistic approaches to habitat management are important to biodiversity; the significance of native and invasive plant species for pollinators/wildlife and to restoration outcomes; and how to translate knowledge gained from research into practical management actions.

Topic 1: Understanding the cascading impacts of invasive plants and why natives are part of the solution.

Dawn Slack, Director of Stewrdship, The Nature Conservancy and Chair for the Invasive Plant Advisory Commitee to the Invasive Species Council

Topic 2: The implications from current research on managing monarch and other native pollinator habitat.
