Immersion Workshop | Discover Nature’s Genius in Montana

Start: 
Sun, 2015/08/02 - Fri, 2015/08/07
Location: 
Blacktail Ranch, Wolf Creek, MT

August in Montana is the perfect time of year to get outside and discover what this unique ecosystem offers. (Plus, you could meet your friends and family pre- or post-workshop for an adventure in Yellowstone or Glacier National Parks!)

Through the course of the workshop, our highly experienced biomimicry instructors will teach participants to:

  • Identify sustainable innovation strategies in nature and discern the functional objectives being achieved by forms, processes, and systems in nature

  • Translate biological phenomenon into relevant and applicable design principles

  • Recognize Life’s Principles—the rules for the way life on Earth survives and thrives in natural systems and in human design
  • Assemble interdisciplinary biomimicry work teams based on required competencies

Who Should Attend
This workshop is open to professional and university-level participants from all backgrounds and levels of experience with biomimicry. The agenda is designed to give non-biologists a front door into the world of biology and how to apply its lessons. Biologists will also find value in the workshop in learning how to make biological information accessible, relevant, and valuable to a wide range of audiences.
