All-Partners Working Groups
One of the results of the All-Partners was the creation of initial working groups for CAZCA. These groups will help the partnership identify priorities, pool our resources and help implement goals outlined in the ROSS.
These initial groups will explore issues like regional connectivity, education & outreach, and invasive species.
For those
who signed up for working groups, you can expect to hear from us sometime in April or May about the first working group meetings.
The Value of a Convener
We are grateful the partnership sees the benefit of CAZCA's work. Collaboration can be difficult and in a time when capacity and resources are limited, the role of a backbone or convening organization can be very valuable. During the All Partners we were able to gather feedback on our role, to learn that the biggest benefit to partners are our shared programming and branding, the infrastructure that allows this community to come together to network, share and inspire us to achieve more.
As we take the next steps we will work to refine and expand our abilities to provide these spaces and services for the region to thrive.
Stinknet Outreach
Stinknet was added to the Arizona Noxious Weed list in January 2020 and
CAZCA staff has been working to raise awareness and educate the public on this new invasive. We held a Workshop for the town of Cave Creek, as well as working with the media to provide information to the community at large.
