What We DoOur work combines two basic strategies: partner with others to restore more wetlands and strive to innovate fundamental changes in how we finance large-scale wetland restoration. RestorationThe Wetlands Initiative is a leader in the growing national movement convinced that restored wetlands can be part of the solution to environmental problems like poor water quality, escalating flood damages, and vanishing wildlife. InnovationThe Wetlands Initiative is working to "change the rules of the game" about how we address the critical environmental problems caused by the loss of our nation's wetlands. If economics is part of the problem, then it must be part of the solution.
