“I wanted to make sure that any undergraduate students I recruited for fieldwork could participate regardless of how much field gear and prior wilderness experience they had. I believe fieldwork experiences should not be a financial burden. [This award] helped me facilitate a safe and positive field research experience for both the undergraduate students and myself.” Read 2024 FI Research Award Recipient My-Lan Le's Experience Reflection: fieldinclusive.org/2024/10/2…

“This opportunity, aimed towards helping novices like me gain a foothold in the field research field, and allowed me to gain first-hand experience in ornithological field research practices. This fellowship shined a new perspective on how I viewed the field of ornithology, and showed me that my true calling in life was sitting right in front of me; I learned despite the hardships that come with field work, the tribulations, the complications and learning curves, can be taken in stride when you’re confident that this is truly your life’s purpose.” Read 2024 Field Inclusive - Cape Fear Bird Observatory joint fellow Killian Yevtyeyev's Experience Reflection: fieldinclusive.org/2024/10/2…

This year we accomplished so much, including 1) continuing to provide awareness and safety resources addressing the unique issues faced by BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, disabled, and other underrepresented scientists in the field, 2) hosting webinars, virtual and in-person workshops, and participating in roundtable discussions surrounding field safety issues, and 3) welcomed aboard four new board members. We continued to develop and update free online resources. Most excitingly, we began development of our online field safety training course! In addition, we were able to financially support 5 marginalized students with research grants, travel awards, and fellowships to support paid learning opportunities. We envision a world in which the outdoors feels safe and welcoming for all, regardless of personal identity. With your continued support, we look forward to accomplishing even more next year!

You all never cease to amaze us! Our CFO @ldpharr put out a special request from our Field Inclusive field gear closet a few weeks ago and wow — you all fulfilled it and then some! In order to continue to set up our summer interns and fellows for success, it helps for them to not have to worry about needing to afford certain items during what’s suppose to be a joyful time of learning in the field. So far we have received 4 new backpacks, 30 headlamps, and 12 neck gaiters. Paired with some leftover gear from our partners at Sphyrnas (and with more from them on the way) all of these items will be sent to our fellowship partners at Cape Fear Bird Observatory! Going forward, all of our summer fellows will be receiving a backpack, neck gaiters, a headlamp, and a $100 gift card that they can use towards any other field gear/clothing purchases for their fieldwork. So to our partners and donors, THANK YOU! And other organizations, take note. It is crucial to help set up your new interns and fellows for success for their time with you, and help break those barriers to access when it comes to needing field gear to help them do their jobs. 🙏🏽 • We are accepting donations on a rolling basis and are always in need of the following: - hiking/lightweight/waterproof backpacks - headlamps - neck gaiters - muck/rain boots for field work • Interested in donating any of this items? Please send us an email: info@fieldinclusive.org , or shop our Amazon wishlist: amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/9T… Thank you in advance for helping to break down barriers to the outdoors!
