CWPP Workshop
About
Enhancing Collaboration and Building Community Capacity is a project funded by the Joint Fire Science Program (JFS) that has resulted in case studies within thirteen communities on the role of collaboration during development of Community Wildfire Protection Plans. Project researchers conducted cases in several types and sizes of communities California, Oregon, Montana, Colorado, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Virginia and Florida. Profiles of the case studies are available at: http://jfsp.fortlewis.edu/communityProfiles.asp
 
Workshop Goals and Outcomes
The workshop goal is to make available “lessons learned” about the contexts, processes and outcomes of collaboration. We anticipate that many of these lessons will assist communities in monitoring and strengthening existing CWPPs and help other communities as they get started with their CWPP efforts. The workshop will bring together participants from organizational, community, governmental and non-profit groups to share lessons from the JFS case study and facilitate dialogue on how to strength CWPP efforts. Outcomes should result in participants transferring an array of lessons about community collaboration within their own networks and increasing collaboration in CWPP efforts across the region.
