This online event featured a facilitated panel with Vicki Christiansen, Chief, US Forest Service; Jeff Rupert, Director, Office of Wildland Fire, DOI; and George Geissler, State Forester, Washington State DNR. They provided leaders intent around the Cohesive Strategy as we look forward and provided some context to the implementation of the strategy throughout 2020. Questions were asked by our community through the survey we conducted, as well as the participates online during the event. We also heard from several presenters demonstrating novel adaptations from around the country.
