Trees, Water & People was founded in 1998 by Stuart Conway and Richard Fox,
and is staffed by a group of dedicated conservationists who feel
strongly about helping communities protect, conserve, and manage the
natural resources upon which their long-term well-being depends. Our
work 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. TWP develops and manages continuing
reforestation, watershed protection, appropriate technology, and
environmental education programs in Central America, Mexico, and the
American West. TWP's international programs have been recognized
nationally and internationally, receiving awards from Kodak, The
Conservation Fund, and etown, a nationally syndicated environmental
radio show. TWP's programs have been featured on National Geographic
Television, National Public Radio, and in the Christian Science
Monitor. |
