The El Paso Zoo and Botanical Gardens and the Chihuahuan Desert Education Coalition are working on plans to host a third Chihuahuan Desert Conference in El Paso in November of 2023. The conference will bring together researchers and conservation advocates from across the Chihuahuan Desert to help facilitate collaboration in the region and learn of new programs recently completed or underway.
This will be the second conference hosted by the Zoo. The first one was held in 2019 and the El Paso Sierra Club group was a sponsor.
Volunteers are needed to help plan the conference and help with all aspects of making it happen. For more information contact Rick LoBello at 915-212-2823/ lobellorl@elpasotexas.gov.
