My first introduction to this years Alumni of
the Year Award winner was when I was aClass IV fellow. The NRLI Project Team haddiscussed the NRLI Practicum requirement
and some examples of past practicum wereshared. I remember thinking the exampleswere so impressive, and almost to the point
of intimidating. Of those examples was the
Biscayne Bay Signage Project, theEverglades Radio Network and a nonprofit
organization, called the Florida Earth
Foundation, whose mission is to bring peopletogether through education, public
outreach, and facilitation to ensure thefuture integrity of Floridas environment and
quality of life.
Stan Bronson, Executive Director of FloridaEarth Foundation, is an alumnus ofNRLI ClassII and is this years NRLI Alumni of the Year
NRLI Alumni of the Year Award- Stan BronsonDeborah Burr, Class IV
Award. Stan took what started as a requiredNRLI practicum of the Florida Earth Foundation
and has continued to promote thefundamental concept of NRLI - to work with alpeople to address the natural resources issues
that face our state. Today, the Florida Earth
Foundation serves as a model for addressing
Floridas most critical environmental resource
issues.
One of the major functions of the Florida EarthFoundation is to educate the public, bringingexperts together to teach science and policy
in the natural resource arena. Under Stans
leadership, the Florida Earth Foundation has
also become a global partner in the effort
under UNESCO-IHE Institute for WateEducation. The reach of Florida Earth is broad
spanning the globe through the use otechnology such as Facebook and Linkin and
by building partnerships here in Florida and
across the Atlantic. If you are not already a
friend to Florida Earth be sure to add themlater to in order to stay up to date on the lateshappenings!
Stan Bronson has been selected as this years
NRLI Alumni of the Year Award recipient fo
many reasons. Besides what started as a NRLPracticum and has now grown to a wellrespected global non-profit organization, Stan
applies NRLI concepts within the issues that the
Florida Earth Foundation helps to addressStans leadership at the FL Earth Foundationalso serves as a model for future NRLI fellows
whether impressing or intimidating, but in theend inspiring them to make a difference inconserving Floridas natural resources through
consensus building and educationaopportunities.

Volusia County Environmental
Management has been working withlocal utility companies to encourage
them to provide better options for
making streetlights compliant with stateand local rules for sea turtle protection.
Many private and public facilities leasestreetlights from utility companies in
coastal communities throughout Florida.
Artificial lights can be problematic to seaturtles, especially hatching nests whichproduce dozens of turtles, because they
are attracted to the bright, short
wavelength lights. Lights disorient them
in directions other than the ocean wherethey need to go. This makes them useup essential energy reserves needed for
their offshore migration. Lights can also
needlessly lead them into predation orother life threatening circumstances.
Through NRLI practicum efforts made byJennifer Winters, Jane Provancha, and
Dianne Hughes (class VIII), manystakeholders from the southeast region of
Florida came to the table to discuss thesimilar problems they have with utility
companies and to work on ways to
resolve them. At a focus group meeting,information regarding existing andpotential options was shared. Since that
time, Volusia County has been able to usethe information and contacts to work
closer with their local utility companies onreaching some solutions to modify
streetlights visible from critical sea turtlenesting habitat.
Two solutions have been implemented inVolusia County. The first is that Volusia
County worked with both of their utility
companies to create a custom designed
and wind-load approved 3 sidedstreetlight shield. Although slightlymodified according to the company
making them, they have the same
general design. These shields wereinstalled throughout Volusia County in
2009.In one 5 mile stretch of beach with a
relatively high amount of sea turtle nesting
which previously had many disorientation
events each season, and many streetlightsvisible from the beach, no sea turtlesdisoriented in the vicinity of these shielded
lights in 2009. The shields properly blocked
the light from the beach! The 3 sidedshield design has already been copied
and is also being installed in other seaturtle nesting communities.(continued next page)

The second solution that one of the power companys took on their own was to install
photo cells on streetlights which must be turned off each season. These lights cannot be
corrected with shields due to their close proximity to the beach. The photo cell isprogrammed to turn off the light seasonally. Instead of sending a turn off list (as many
municipalities still do throughout the state) and then waiting for the lights to be turned offone by one, the lights are set to automatically turn off at the start of each nesting seasonand automatically come back on at the end. The photo cells are in the testing stage in
Volusia County right now. There are high hopes that these photo cells will worksuccessfully and will be something that could be used in other parts of the state in the
future. The photo cells will also reduce time, energy and resources spent manually turningoff and on each light.

NRLI Alumni Teach Colleagues about MeetingManagement SkillsBryan Fluech, Class VIII
In March several NRLI alumni got theopportunity to put their NRLI skills to practice
by sharing with their colleagues some of thevaluable skills they learned while in NRLI.
The traditional role of a University Extension
Agent has been to provide content and letpeople choose their own path, but more
often these days, extension agents are morefrequently being called upon to act asfacilitators for public deliberation and group
decision making on contentious issues fromthe county government to the advisory
committee level.
Florida Sea Grant Agents BettyStaugler(class VI), Joy Hazell (class IX), and
Bryan Fluech (Class VIII) along with PaulMonaghan (Class IX), who is a facultymember with the University of Florida's
Department of Agricultural Education and
Communication partnered with theNatural Resources Leadership Institute
project team to offer a workshop forUniversity Extension faculty titled, " HelpingAgents Deal with Issues and Conflicts at
Meetings."(continued next page)

Training Leaders for Collaborative Environmental
Management in the AmazonWendy-Lin Bartels, Class III
NRLI Fellow of Class III, Wendy-Lin Bartels, shares news of an exciting field coursedeveloped for leaders in the Brazilian Amazon using NRLI principles and methods. In
July 2009, the course brought together an interdisciplinary group of 23 participants from
universities, government, private sector and social movements, in an effort to construct
collaborative processes that reconcile competing interests for participatorymanagement of complex socio-ecological systems in the Brazilian Amazon.
Building on more than 30 years of experience in the Amazon region through the Tropical
Conservation and Development program (TCD), an innovative NRLI-like course wasdeveloped by the University of Florida, in partnership with regional NGOs as part of the
Amazon Conservation Leadership Initiative (ACLI). ACLI is similar to NRLI in that it worksto build capacity among leaders to advance science and conservation in the(continued next page)
Twenty-five extension agents fromSouthwest Florida attended the day and
a half training. The participants included
eight County Extension Directors as wellas 4-H, Horticulture, Agriculture, and
Urban Sustainability Extension Agents.Participants learned critical skills and toolsto plan effective meetings to encourage
buy-in and participation from all
stakeholders. These skills included: 1.creating a process that encourages full
participation in decision making, 2.
summarizing and framing issues, and 3.identifying and addressing difficultdynamics in a group meeting. Workshop
attendees responses were overwhelming;
more than one participant opined that the
training should be mandatory for all agents
and one participant stated it was one ofthe best in-service training in her 27 years asan extension agent. The organizers are inthe process of planning next steps including
writing several topic-related fact sheets,offering the training again to a wideraudience and creating a supplement
training that addresses specific tools forinclusive decision making.

Amazon-Andes region, with support
from the Gordon and Betty Moore
Foundation.
Our NRLI-like field course emergedfrom two premises: a region like Alta
Floresta on the Amazon frontier of
Brazil (See Figure 1) can beunderstood as a complex socio-
ecological system; and the socio-environmental management of such
systems demands participation and
dialogue among a diverse group ofsocial actors. Therefore, the course
combined theories and methodsbased on the concepts of panarchyand resilience, and tools to promotedialogue between diverse interestgroups.
Traditional science,compartmentalized in disciplines(ecology, social sciences, political
science, economics), produces knowledge thatis valuable and useful, but insufficient to explainthe function of, for example, a region like theAmazon frontier. For more than a decade, a
group of scientists such as Holling, Gunderson,
Berkes and Folke (www.resalliance.org) havebeen developing theories about the function,
management and resilience of so-calledcomplex socio-ecological systems. They
recognized that, when considering large spatial
and temporal scales, ecosystems are not staticor in equilibrium; rather they experience
"adaptive cycles" of exploitation, conservation,liberation and reorganization, and the factorsthat cause these cycles originate in diverse
domains such as economics, social, political andtechnology. Therefore, our field course sought to
integrate natural and social science disciplines,in the actual context of Alta Floresta, Mato
Grosso, Brazil -- part of a dynamic region knownas the Portal da Amazonia.
The "experiential learning methodology of the
course was adapted from the NRLI model. We
emphasized working in groups with a diversity ofparticipants and local stakeholders representingdifferent disciplines and economic sectors:
researchers and ranchers, professors and
government agency personnel, loggers andNative Americans. Our participants studied real
cases, such as a teek reforestation initiative, new
legislation for licensing of land use, ecotourismand management of a protected area. We
followed the NRLI steps: an initial lecture topresent the context for each case; field visits that
provided access to local actors and conditionson the ground; and discussion panels withstakeholders representing diverse viewpoints and
roles. (continued next page)

Our interdisciplinary group of course participants also carried out structured reflection,
discussion, and elaboration of analyses and recommendations. The concreteproducts of the group work were preliminary models of the interactions between
critical socio-environmental variables in key regional sectors -- forest management,
ranching and conservation -- and scenarios of possible futures with and without
adequate socio-environmental management.
The opportunity to hear directly from the protagonists -businessmen, small producers,
Native Americans, union leaders, government officials and others -- enabled analysis of
the decisions made by each of these, taking into account their values, motivations,interests and positions that are often not addressed in academic studies. For theparticipants, the course presented a new way of understanding and collaborativemanagement of the regional landscape, incorporating the theory of complex socio-
ecological systems, evaluating innovative public policy options in the case studies, and
using a methodology of direct interaction with groups of diverse stakeholders. Each
participant will apply the content and methods from the course in their own researchand/or professional work.
Next Steps: In July of 2010, the second NRLI-like course will be held in Brazil with the
same group of leaders in an attempt to deepen our experience. During this time ourgroup will design an inter-institutional specialization course for Amazon Universities as
well as a broader action-research program to examine collaborative and integratedsocio-environmental management of the region.
