Activity 2

Conservation leadershipwe effect change in the conservation world by:engaging new conservationists: in order to ensure that wild places are preserved and humans and wildlife find a harmonious balance on the land they share, we will need more conservationists from all walks of life. One of our goals at the murie center is to reach out to these inactive conservationists who are waiting for the opportunity to contribute to an effort that has excluded them, or simply eluded them.inspiring and empowering people: the murie center has an opportunity and an obligation to use its voice and its resources effectively as the muries did in countless forums, bringing bright minds together with the biggest of ideas to make the world a better place. We work to continue to inspire conservation leadership into the 21st century.advocating for large landscape conservation and citizen action: the muries knew how valuable intact ecosystems were to sustaining healthy and diverse populations of wildlife and foremost among their accomplishments were the establishment of the arctic national wildlife refuge and the passage of the wilderness act. Their holistic ecological philosophy guides our work to provide tools and resources for citizen action for a better world.
