Celebrating 50 From the Field Webinars

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We’ve hit an important milestone with our From the Field webinar series. 50 webinars!

Last year in March, the global COVID-19 pandemic required people worldwide to work from home, which included International Crane Foundation staff in Africa, Asia and North America. This created a great opportunity for us to share information with a global audience eager to learn more about cranes and conservation through our From the Field webinar series.

Our series provides a platform for colleagues to share research, outreach, fieldwork findings and other crane and conservation information via Zoom webinars. This content is new or repurposed from prepared presentations shared at festivals, conferences and workshops. Presentations vary in length, from 25 to 45 minutes, with a moderator asking the presenter(s) questions received from the audience.

Through this series, we are deepening participants’ understanding of our worldwide programs and we have increased awareness about crane conservation across the globe. The series is created by a creative and dedicated team working on multiple continents and countries. We’ve curated a selection of webinars for you, shown below, or you may browse our full webinar library.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator border_width=”2″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/mMraL424064″ el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]A Long and Narrow Flyway: The Last Wild Whooping Crane Population, with North America Program Director Liz Smith[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/6KkxOhuYuf4″ el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Cranes 365 – Glorious Gatherings of Cranes, with North America Program Senior Manager Anne Lacy[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/3MBQ2tRG_ww” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]The Successes and Challenges of Reintroducing Whooping Cranes, with North America Program Crane Analyst Hillary Thompson[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/oNwUiy7DJhs” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]From Russia With Love – The Siberian Crane Story, with Vice President International Asia Spike Millington[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/s9S-VlDWyeY” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Cranes, Climate Change and COVID-19 – Lessons for Saving a Family of Birds, Ourselves and Our World, with President and CEO Rich Beilfuss[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/XM5VUOf265Y” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Making the Skies Safer for South Africa’s Cranes, with South Africa Programme Manager Tanya Smith[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/iDMgyp_kR3Y” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Crane Conservation in the Kingdom of Bhutan, with Co-founder George Archibald; Jigme Tshering, Communications and Education Division Chief with the Royal Society for the Protection of Nature; and David M.
