Overview
The goal of the Desert Rivers Initiative is to ensure that the Colorado River delta and estuary are restored with water flows that create habitat that sustains a diversity of wildlife, and provides community and economic benefits in the face of climate change. The Sonoran Institute will work to preserve and enhance river flows in the Rio Hardy River, which flows into the Colorado; ensure that water is used for the environment and community well-being; and build a broad base of support for river conservation and restoration in both the United States and Mexico.
