About Green Conversations
Approximately 60+ organizations in this province are dedicated to building a stronger, healthier environment. ENGOs and members of the public will join NLEN and resource people in conversation about topics that will help individuals, the public, and the planet move forward with resilience.

The NLEN Green Conversation Series is a loosely-structured, moderated, 75 minute unscripted program developed to engage dialogue and consideration about environmental-related topics important to our province and our collective future amongst members of the community. All are welcome participants (live and online).

The model is listening and sharing thoughts and knowledge.
The goal of the series is to consider, in all cases, ‘how can we do it better?’.

Newfoundland and Labrador Environment Network’s Green Conversations is proud to receive QuickStart funding from Memorial’s Office of Public Engagement and in-kind support from Memorial University’s Conference & Event Services.

Presented by N.L. Environment Network
