Welcome to Great Lakes Bioneers Chicago!
We’re gearing up for our 2013 event. This year’s program promises to be even better than last years’ gathering:
- Friday will include longer, more intensive sessions with professional development credit, and a designated youth track.
- Saturday will focus on education and awareness raising (much like last year).
- Sunday will be devoted to action.
Planners are asking our keynotes to stay at least two days and make space for informal discussions, in addition to their keynote addresses and participation on interdisciplinary panels. You won’t want to miss this!
