Pacific Fire Exchange - 3rd Advisory Panel Meeting

HWMO’s staff members Elizabeth Pickett and Pablo Beimler flew to Oahu to meet with members of the Pacific Fire Exchange Advisory Panel, which includes our very own Board President, Miles Nakahara, and partners from the University of Hawaii, USDA Forest Service and Natural Resource Conservation Service, Department of Defense, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Pacific Disaster Center, and many more. We presented the PFX overview and goals and broke out into discussion groups to brainstorm "knowledge themes."
