ATLANTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, April 11, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Equine Collaborative International, ECI, will host a Wild Horse Solutions Summit Zoom public webinar on Wednesday, April 12th, at 7:00 PM EST. The Solutions Summit will address the future of wild horses and burros in the United States. The event will feature presentations from experts in their field. Discussions will focus on the challenges facing wild horse and burro populations. The Summit will provide an opportunity for the public to learn more about the issues facing wild horses and share their ideas and concerns. Attendees will have the chance to ask questions and provide feedback to the experts after the presentations are made.
Barbara Moore is the ECI Vice President and Editor of their quarterly publication, Ground Work. Barbara shares her insights into the Solutions Summit. “ECI believes there is a place in wild horse and burro advocacy for everyone. By bringing together experts from several different facets of advocacy, we are able to let new and less experienced advocates find their place in trying to protect, promote and preserve the the native and iconic mustangs and burros that are a living symbol of American freedom. More experienced, long term advocates benefit from the diversity of the ideas presented by the eclectic group involved in this discussion.”
“The focus of this meeting is to allow each of the expert presenters a short time to talk about the problem in wild horse advocacy that is most significant to them and, more importantly, offer their best ideas on the solution to that problem. Following the individual presentations, there will be a question and answer period that will be overseen by ECI’s favorite moderator, Director of Campaigns for both Animal Wellness Action and The Center For A Humane Economy, Scott Beckstead. A lifelong horseman and animal advocate, Beckstead generously and frequently brings his expertise to the ECI platform.”
