About
Purpose
The Private and Public Sector Ecologists Section encourages networking between professionals who work in for-profit or not-for-profit businesses or governmental agencies, whose primary professional focus is application of ecological science. The section seeks to build value for scientists in these fields among ESA in terms of programs and member benefits, and to represent these scientists’ interests in ESA’s leadership. Members with an interest in furthering the application of ecological knowledge, regardless of their career area, are encouraged to join the Section. Read more in the Section Bylaws.
