Dedicated to advancing scholarly and public understanding of the past, present, and future of western North America, the Center supports research, teaching, and reporting about western land and life in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The Center will be hosting the Spence and Cleone Eccles Family Rural West Conference from March 23-25 at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
At our fifth annual conference, we shift our focus from identifying challenges to engaging policymakers, practitioners, and academics to develop solutions that can be deployed throughout the Rural West.
