To improve people's lives by helping communities protect, conserve and manage the natural resources upon which their long-term well-being depends. We work in Mesoamerica and on Tribal lands in the Southwestern United States.
To improve people’s lives by helping communities protect, conserve and manage the natural resources upon which their long-term well-being depends.
This mission is guided by two core beliefs:
• that natural resources are best protected when local people play an active role in their care and management; and
• preserving local trees, wetlands, and watersheds is essential for the ongoing social, economic, and environmental health of communities everywhere.
