WE ALSO HELD A 3-DAY IN-PERSON EVENT IN NEW MEXICO TO HEAR FROM LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL LEADERS. IN ALL THESE FORUMS, MEMBERS LEARNED FROM EACH OTHER AND EXPERTS ABOUT INTERRELATED CHALLENGES TO THE ENVIRONMENT, HUMAN HEALTH, ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE, AND COMMUNITY WELL-BEING, AS WELL AS THE ROLE THAT WOMEN LEADERS AND PHILANTHROPISTS PLAY IN AMELIORATING PAST AND PRESENT HARM AND BUILDING A LIVABLE FUTURE. BEYOND THEIR EDUCATIVE VALUE, THESE FORUMS PROVIDED MEMBERS WITH A SENSE OF COMMUNITY.
