Webinar information

This live discussion webinar – hosted by SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry’s Dr. Marianne Patinelli-Dubay – is an introduction to thinking about forest management through the lenses of rational and relational approaches. Gain valuable knowledge by balancing a focus on applying rational thought to moral and ethical problems as well as considering the impact of your decisions on the relational landscape of a situation. This webinar will discuss the perennial tension between what we can do and what we should do, as well as how our own sympathies, responsibilities, and loyalties affect our moral decision-making. During this discussion, a case study related to the subject material will be reviewed. This live discussion will expand upon ideas brought up in the microcourse A Forester's Guide to Striking a Balance Between Rules and Relationships, but participation in that course is not required for this robust live discussion.

This webinar will not be recorded. Please ensure that you will attend if registering for this live discussion.

State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry

My work at the Huntington Wildlife Forest, SUNY-ESF’s 15,000-acre research and demonstration forest, is dedicated to the design and delivery of a curriculum in ethics applied directly to forestry and natural resource management.  Principally this includes Practical Ethics for Resource Managers, a required course for undergraduates along with a professional-level course in related topics for SAF’s ForestEd.  A coursebook Practical Ethics: A Field Guide for Resource Managers is the result of a rich collaboration with field foresters and serves as a primary text for these courses. 

I am immediate past Chair of New York SAF’s Adirondack Chapter, current Chair-Elect of New York SAF and an elected member of the Forest Stewards Guild Membership and Policy Committee.  My husband and I own the prettiest working farm and forest in the Champlain Valley, along the border between Vermont and New York.  Every aspect of my work-life is in service to an optimistic future for woodlands and the communities that they sustain.
