The biennial Wind Wildlife Research Meeting provides an internationally recognized forum for researchers and stakeholders to share and engage on the latest science focused on better understanding the risk of wind energy to wildlife and developing solutions to avoid, minimize, and offset impacts. The meeting also brings together thought leaders to discuss priority topics and themes in the wind-wildlife arena. Academics, researchers, conservation scientists, consultants, federal and state officials, NGO representatives, industry professionals come together every other year for this unique opportunity.
The theme of the 14th Wind Wildlife Research Meeting was Winds of Change: Charting a Path Forward for Wind Energy That Facilitates Conservation
Format
The 14th WWRM was a hybrid conference, with virtual On-Demand presentations, poster sessions and Live Sessions held in person.
- On-Demand & Posters: On-Demand presentations and panels were available to registrants to view in early November with asynchronous Q&A, and posters were available for viewing at the in-person meeting and presenters were in attendance to answer questions.
- Live Sessions: Live Sessions were a mix of discussion-based panels and symposium-style research panels on topics of interest, relevant questions for the wind-wildlife community to address, and gaps needed to address questions and improve decision-making proposed by a Planning Committee. Live Sessions were streamed and each panel was followed by a live Q&A with the panelists.
