Americas Latino Eco Festival

October 15, 2015 @ 8:00 am - October 17, 2015 @ 5:00 pm

The Americas Latino Eco-Festival (ALEF) is the largest multicultural environmental annual event of its kind leveraging Latino leadership for conservation gains. ALEF establishes a home for advocates and leaders from the leading organizations with Latino constituencies and environmental mandates. ALEF advocates for an integrated local and national conservation agenda committed to advancing Latinos’ connections with nature and experience of the outdoors that in turn may inspire future stewardship of our natural resources. ALEF 2015 will launch an authoritative climate training program as well as call for actions on climate stewardship, land conservation, and the transition to renewable energies.
