Thank you to those of you who attended and participated in the webcast!

The UNC Charlotte Urban Institute and the John S. & James L. Knight Foundation are teaming to offer journalists in the Charlotte region a series of seminars over the next three years on the changing nature of growth and open space reporting. These aspects of environmental journalism are an increasing part of regional news media coverage as the Piedmont region’s rapid growth brings land use, development, and open space issues to the fore.  These issues are also increasingly related to other civic issues, such as health, schools, the economy, crime, and taxes.  These seminars will provide regional journalists with opportunities to examine these challenges with experts, explore story ideas, and gain access to a wealth of environmental journalism resources.
