The CPI's goal is to equip participants with knowledge and skills in the fields of conservation psychology, environmental psychology and ecopsychology to effectively bring about environmental behavior change through work in their own institutions and professional sectors. Jointly run by Antioch University New England and Phipps, the internationally recognized faculty team includes P. Wesley Schultz, PhD, Louise Chawla, PhD, Thomas Joseph Doherty, PsyD, Carol Saunders, PhD, and Molly Steinwald, MS, PhD. And while designed for professionals in museum, zoo, aquarium, botanic garden, nature center, environmental advocacy, media, and other sectors with broad public engagement opportunities, individuals from other conservation, environmental and education arenas will also benefit. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Learn more and register at: <a href="http://www.conservationpsychologyinstitute.org/">www.conservationpsychologyinstitute.org</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>---<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Molly Steinwald, MS, PhD candidate<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Director of Science Education<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>1 Schenley Park<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Pittsburgh, PA 15213<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>412-441-4442 ext. 3804<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'><a href="mailto:msteinwald@phipps.conservatory.org">msteinwald@phipps.conservatory.org</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'><a href="http://www.phipps.conservatory.org">www.phipps.conservatory.org</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Phipps' mission is to inspire and educate visitors with the beauty and importance of plants, to advance sustainability and worldwide diversity through action and research, and to celebrate its historic glasshouse.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Watch "The Evolving Green Story of Phipps" at:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><a href="http://phipps.conservatory.org/project-green-heart/green-heart-at-phipps/center-for-sustainable-landscapes.aspx"><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>http://phipps.conservatory.org/project-green-heart/green-heart-at-phipps/center-for-sustainable-landscapes.aspx</span></a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></body></html>
