COURSE TITLE: Field Safety Seminar with Field Inclusive: A New Type of Field Safety

INSTRUCTORS Lauren D. Pharr

COURSE DESCRIPTION Abstract:
Do you feel safe when you go for a walk, bird watching or hiking? Not all members of our community do. Field researchers often experience bias in the field and do not always feel safe. This program will take us into their shoes and help start conversations. This will begin the conversation in order to help you co-create tangible, actionable change and social field safety solutions in our own communities and organizations.

Speaker Bio:
A Ph.D. candidate at North Carolina State University (NCSU), Pharr is pursuing her degree in Fisheries, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology. Her current research focuses on studying the effects of climate change on nestling success in the federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker. In addition to her research, Pharr is an advocate for Black and historically excluded minorities in STEM. Both her research and advocacy work led her to be awarded the North Carolina Wildlife Federation’s 2023 Governor's Conservation Achievement Award for Young Conservationist of the Year, the highest honor in the state of North Carolina in the wildlife space. She currently resides in Raleigh, North Carolina.
