Restoring the Rivers Fund
Letting Water Organize Us in Service to Life
We have ambitious plans for the regeneration of watersheds throughout Barichara's territory -- with a focus on community governance and reforestation in stream beds that connect with biological migration corridors.
Healing of Degraded Landscapes
Our territory is in the process of becoming a desert after decades of intense deforestation. Collaboration is needed at the scale of watersheds and ecological corridors in order to reverse this dangerous trend.

Weaving the Waters
Multiple drainages make up the hydrological system of the Barichara River. We are helping diverse local actors throughout the territory to work collaboratively at landscape scales.
Strategic Partnerships
The water crisis is a powerful unifying issue for the people of Barichara. This fund will bring territorial dialogues together with reforestation efforts, community aqueducts, citizen-science projects, educational initiatives with children and adults, and a lot more.
