Overview
The Nature Conservancy works to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. This grant supports a project to better understand federal-level funding mechanisms that can lead to increased action to reduce the risk of extreme wildfire events in the Western United States and beyond, while increasing ecosystem and community resilience to wildfire. This research will help inform the Hewlett Foundation’s goal of leveraging additional resources for wildfire resilience across the American West. (Western Conservation Substrategy: Wildfire)
