Craig Allen, director of the Nebraska Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Unit, and David Wishart, professor of geography, will present at the NU FEWS + Conversations from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., Nov. 12 in the Colonial Room at the Nebraska Union.
NU FEWS + Conversations features UNL faculty discussing diverse dimensions of the FEWS (food, energy and water systems) nexus – think short TED talks with lunch or hors d'oeuvres included.
The speakers will explore how their research areas relate to the FEWS nexus, and provide a way for faculty from other disciplines to see how they might participate in generating research ideas. A panel of faculty who were invited to attend NSF-sponsored INFEWS symposia will lead the final NU FEWS + Conversation. They will report on topics and discussions from the symposia, which NSF will use as a source of research ideas and topics for upcoming calls for proposals.
