Connemara Conservation Conversations
Join us for 5 weeks every Wednesday at 7.30 pm from 17 March for 35 minutes
Connemara Green are pleased to announce ‘Connemara Conservation Conversations’. Having run our Connemara Green Festival for 5 years, the Covid-19 pandemic has provided us with an opportunity to do something different and to refocus on biodiversity and ecology in this region. By going online, we also aim to increase the awareness of the conservation and actions in our area. Topics will focus on conservation with inspiring speakers and conservations on bringing talk into action. Our spring programme will get off to a green start on the 17th of March 2021! Each talk will be approximately 35 minutes with time for Q & A’s after.
