ESA's Southeast Regional Knowledge Partnership (SEKP) seeks to bring scientists, policy makers, and business and community leaders together to address the particular environmental issues confronting the states of Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
Ecologists who want to affect decision making about the environment must understand the needs of decision makers and how to make ecological knowledge available in a form that is both accessible and useful.
The SEKP furthers this goal by creating a series of forums and networks in which ecological information is made available and usable by individuals in local communities, government, business, and industry.
