Today, Hsuan and I guided the students of the PRTM 2220 course (Program and Event Planning in PRTM) on a transformative Forest Therapy walk. This time, we extended the experience to 2 hours, allowing for a deeper immersion in the serene beauty of the SC Botanical Garden. The impact was remarkable. Participants connected more deeply with nature and their inner selves, reflecting on everything from the fast pace of modern life to a newfound sense of relaxation, and even experiencing spiritual moments with the beings of the forest. The nature based immersion was truly inspiring.

Today, I had the honor of presenting at the National Outdoor Recreation Conference (NORC). This conference brings together the nation’s outdoor recreation professionals from across the US in one place. This year (2024), it was held in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

Approximately 45 people from parks, protected areas, and other related professions attended my panel session entitled “Integrating Communities into Protected Areas Decision-making.”

Even though I will be graduating this Friday, my research work is not finished yet. The most important step is about to come, which is presenting to the managers and stakeholders of El Yunque National Forest.

Aproximadamente 45 personas de áreas protegidas y otras profesiones relacionadas asistieron a mi sesión titulada “Integración de las comunidades en la toma de decisiones en áreas protegidas”.

Aunque me graduaré este viernes, mi trabajo de investigación aún no ha terminado. El paso más importante está por venir, que es presentar los hallazgos del estudio a los manejadores del Bosque Nacional El Yunque y las comunidades aledañas.
