Better Together: The Power of Relationships in Fire Management

UWSP Wisconsin Forestry Center - Prescribed Fire for Forest Management Series

August 5, 2026 | 10am PT/1pm ET

We face many obstacles in improving fire management: capacity and resources that constrain what we can accomplish, challenging policy environments, and increasingly narrow weather windows are just a few. The solutions to these barriers are nuanced and local, but united by a common theme – the need to work together. This webinar will cover case studies from around the Fire Learning Network that show how focusing first on building trust and relationships leads to authentic, sustained partnerships that are capable of making fundamental change for the better in how we live and work with fire.

Presenters: Emily Hohman and Laurel Kays
