Abstract

Welcome to the 23rd ATTW Conference—ATTW’s first virtual conference! And thank you for joining us today, especially given the collective and personal trauma you’ve experienced over the past year. We appreciate you making and holding space for the important work happening in our community. Originally planned for Milwaukee, WI, the pandemic postponement of our conference has allowed us to convene online this year from all over the nation and beyond. I am grateful for the places and spaces that have held us up since last March and for the networks and ecologies that will sustain us and our technologies this week, including landbases, waterways, flora, and fauna.
