$275 – $325BeaverCON is a biennial, international conference on the east coast of the United States for professionals, researchers and practitioners to learn what works in beaver conflict management and watershed restoration.
This conference is for:
- Stream and Beaver Restoration Professionals

- Ecologists
- Engineers
- Road/Infrastructure Specialists
- Climate Change Experts and Policymakers
In recent years an increasing body of knowledge has demonstrated the many ecological and economic benefits of beaver, as well as improved methods to partner with them to restore healthy streams and naturally combat climate change. Beaver-created wetlands improve water quality and storage, mitigate flooding and droughts, sequester carbon, rebuild healthy streams and watersheds, provide fire breaks, increase biodiversity, speed wildfire recovery, and aid in the recovery of endangered and threatened species, including salmon. To maximize these benefits we can and must coexist with beavers.
Progressive stream restoration, beaver restoration and management, public policy, and other presentation topics will be offered.
