The Fifth Annual Conference of the Southwest Agroforestry Action Network (SWAAN) is an event to engage and inspire the network's current and new members, including 500+ followers, to adopt, practice and encourage agroforestry in the arid Southwest. The event is planned to occur in Tucson, Arizona, April 23-26, 2024.The purpose of the conference is to continue the work of SWAAN to share information about agroforestry, connect potential collaborators and partners, and generate ideas, research and initiatives that advance adoption of agroforestry in the Southwest U.S. As a network, SWAAN's approach is to convene and bring together the people who are practicing agroforestry and those most likely to adopt and implement agroforestry practices.Southwest agroforestry is a type of agroecosystem designed to be both sustainable and regenerative (A1451). Regenerative agroforestry is a combination of practices to increase soil moisture and build soil health, increase plant diversity, sequester carbon and strengthen resilience to climate change. The SWAAN community extends this concept of regenerative to people as well.The conference will include: a pre-conference campus arboretum tour; a one-day hybrid in-person and online conference with invited speakers; and a fieldtrip to local agroforestry related sites, and a mini-workshop on agroforestry and food forest design. The conference includes a particular focus on agroforestry and regenerative agriculture from an indigenous perspective. The main conference will be recorded and made available online, program evaluation will be conducted and a SWAAN conference article will be written to report on the conference and evaluation, and any new ideas for research, needs or gaps for related programming.
