Communicating for Community: Stories for a Better Planet

From Highlands, North Carolina to the highlands of the Galápagos, Carolina’s communicators have stories to tell. During this panel, venture outside the confines of Chapel Hill to learn about the students and faculty conducting community-based research projects for a better future. We’ll discuss light pollution in the Outer Banks, hemlock health in the Appalachian Mountains, water security in the Galápagos and much, much more.
