Trust and Public Participation
February 23, 2016, at 3:00 p.m. ET Presented by Marc Stern, an Associate Professor in the Department of Forest Resources and Environmental Conservation at Virginia Tech
Why do you trust? Why do other people trust (or distrust) you? This webinar will explore the multiple dimensions of trust as they relate to public participation and environmental communications. We’ll discuss different sources of trust and how different forms of trust interact to enhance or detract from collaboration, negotiation, education, and persuasive communications.
