Growing Rural Equitable Outdoor Recreation Economies: A Virtual Discussion
Presented by the Community Strategies Group & the Aspen Institute

How is your community using outdoor recreation to grow sustainable livelihoods for families and new economic futures for your region? How do equity, fairness, local ownership, and better health outcomes shape your outdoor recreation efforts? Join the discussion to share your story.
As new rural outdoor recreation economies take root, we have the opportunity to meet this moment by improving the way we do outdoor recreation development to better support rural families, businesses, and workers and to create more sustainable and equitable economic systems.
We want you to join the discussion! From longtime residents to newcomers who are now living and working in rural places, we want to hear from you! This conversation will be enriched by people interested in sharing or learning about techniques for growing sustainable regional economies based on outdoor recreation. Please think about a success story or experience you’d like to share.
