Public Participation for the Restoration of the Colorado River delta

by Jennie Duberstein / Friday, 11 May 2007 / Published in Awards Program

Project Description

Pronatura Noroeste proposes to undertake community reforestation campaigns in riparian zones at the Colorado River delta, Baja California and Sonora, Mexico. This project is aimed at increasing the extent of current bird habitat conservation initiatives by involving communities in ongoing or new wetland enhancement efforts. This project will engage teachers students in the reforestation of 36 acres (3600 trees) in priority sites at the Colorado River delta. Reforestation activities include installation of hydraulic infrastructure, removal of cattle, removal of exotic plant species and planting native wetland and riparian vegetation. Teachers and students will participate in the last two activities. We will also increase the public support for conservation activities at the Colorado River delta; and strengthen existing education and conservation agendas in the Colorado River Delta.
