SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: Preparing for the “big one”: prescribed fire as a strategic fuel reduction tool
DESCRIPTION:Preparing for the “big one”: prescribed fire as a strategic fuel reduction tool\nApril 2\, 2024 900 – 1030 PST | 1800 – 1930 CET \nHosted by the California Fire Science Consortium \nWildfires are becoming bigger and more severe around the world\, overwhelming firefighters’ capacity to control them. Prescribed fires can be used to safely introduce fire in the landscape and regulate fire regimes through fuel management and by building landscape resilience. Is this approach working? \nThis week\, four fire experts will discuss how fire and resource managers are using prescribed fire to prevent wildfire spread. They will discuss strategic goals and tactics\, tradeoffs between broad landscape resilience and local fuel management\, and whether prescribed fire intensities are enough to affect outcomes. \nPresenters: \n\nTessa Oliver Manager of the Western Cape Umbrella Fire Protection Association\, South Africa\nJorge Andres Saavedra Corporacion Nacional forestal\, CONAF\, Chile\nMarta Miralles\, Catalan Fire Service\, Spain\nStephen Fillmore\, Fuels Operations Specialist USDA Forest Service\, Pacific Southwest Region\, USA\n\nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Partner Webinar: California’s Prescribed Fire (R)evolution: Changing Hearts\, Minds\, and Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:5:00 PM ET\, April 2\, 2024 \nHosted by the California Fires Science Consortium \nDescription: Prescribed fire has undergone major transformation in California over the last decade or two\, evolving from a mostly agency-led practice with limited visibility to a statewide grassroots movement\, engaging and being led by a diversity of partners\, including NGOs\, ranchers\, Indigenous practitioners\, and other community leaders. This movement has been simultaneously organic\, bubbling up at the local level\, and impressively strategic\, pairing local community organizing with state-level liability changes\, new qualifications pathways for practitioners\, and major investments in cutting-edge concepts\, like the state’s $20 million Prescribed Fire Claims Fund. The change during this period has been monumental\, representing an evolution in the way we think about and implement prescribed fire in California\, but it also represents a revolution—the result of a groundswell of passion\, purpose\, and pressure from the most affected communities. This presentation will share insights on California’s prescribed fire evolution/revolution\, and reflect on where it might go from here. \nPresenter: Lenya Quinn-Davidson is the Fire Network Director for the University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources. Lenya’s focus is on the human connection with fire\, and increasing resiliency of California’s landscapes and communities. Lenya works at various scales\, including locally with private landowners and communities members; at the state level\, where she leads UCANR’s Fire Network and collaborates on policy\, research\, and community-based burning; and nationally/internationally\, through her leadership on Women-in-Fire Training Exchanges (WTREX). Lenya is passionate about using fire to inspire and empower people\, from ranchers and scientists to agency leaders and young women\, and everyone in between. \nRegister Here
