You’re Invited! Application of Stewardship Mapping Data in Your Work

Join us in developing the next phase of LA STEW-MAP – an ongoing project to better understand the who, where, and how of environmental stewardship in Los Angeles.

The goal of LA STEW-MAP is to collect information about the population, activities, geographic locations, and network relationships of participating environmental stewardship organizations in Los Angeles County. We’ve gathered information from hundreds of organizations, and now we are seeking input on how STEW-MAP may be most useful in your work. Possible applications may include: an online organizational directory, mapping and networking tools, and other ways for this information to support your work.

In this workshop, you will learn more about LA STEW-MAP, be shown a range of examples of potential uses for the data, and join us in a discussion about the utility of possible products. Your participation is extremely valuable, as it will directly inform how we develop the research applications.

In order to accommodate a greater number of participants, we will be holding this workshop on two separate occasions:
