This event is one of several networking panels hosted by the Women’s Environmental History Network in order to celebrate the contributions of women and other underrepresented groups to environmental history, and to build lasting scholarly networks. For this session, the moderators will focus on strategies for diversifying (by race, gender, ethnicity, geography, and topic) the collection of works considered essential for understanding environmental history. As a networking panel, the focus will be on conversation rather than presentation. All are welcome to join us for lively discussion, co-moderated by Dr. Lise Sedrez and Dr. Nancy Langston.
