Gathering Wisdom: Building on 40 Years of Public Land Discourse


The Public Land & Resources Law Review is excited to announce its 40th Public Land Law Conference! In the Conference’s 40 years, much has been accomplished in the field of natural resources management on both our public lands and in Indian Country. As with all things, there is still much learning to be done as we face ongoing challenges alongside ones we had not envisioned four decades ago. This conference gathers the bright minds of the field, both seasoned visionaries who presented in past conference years and those approaching this discourse with fresh eyes, to engage in a history-grounded discussion of what we have learned and how we should apply that wisdom to the complex future of public and tribal lands.

Thursday, October 26 will feature an opening keynote address by John Leshy, Emeritus Professor of Law at UC Law, San Francisco.
Friday, October 27, features a morning address by Nada Culver, Principal Deputy Director of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, and a noon address by Devlan Geddes, Partner of Goetz, Geddes & Gardner P.C.
