Proposing an Initiative

The Natural History Network invites proposals for initiatives that advance our mission. The Network can potentially support efforts by providing thematic context, institutional affiliation, and communication with our growing network of practitioners.

Proposals should be sent to Tom Fleischner, president of NHN tfleischner@prescott.edu and address the following points:

1. What is the name of the initiative?
2. What is the purpose of the initiative?
3. How does the initiative advance the goal of promoting the values of natural history?
4. Who is involved (as an “Action Team”), and who is the contact person?
5. What specific types of support are you seeking from the Natural History Network?
6. What benchmarks will be used to evaluate success of the initiative?

Proposals will initiate a dialogue with the Board of Directors of the Natural History Network, who will decide if the proposal is logistically feasible and concordant with the organization’s strategic goals.
