What We Do

What we do

Sustainable Northwest distinguishes itself in the natural resource sector through an ability to bring together multiple, often opposing sides of an issue, and to craft and promote solutions through a collaborative process.  

In all of our work, we promote:

  • Collaborative, community-based solutions
  • Business models and markets that are sized appropriately to the available natural resource base, and support regional and national “green” economies
  • Networks that connect people and ideas, and foster innovation
  • Public policy that supports sustainable natural resources management
 

How We Work

At the local level

  • We help build strong rural communities that conserve and restore forests and rangelands.

Across communities

  • We build networks that advance and create a strong collective voice for community-based land stewardship.

At the Federal and State policy level

  • We present policy solutions that strengthen investment in sustainable natural resource management.

Overheard...

“Sustainable Northwest’s programs and staff have been an inspiration and catalyst to my work here in Central Oregon. Without their wise guidance and capable technical assistance, we might still have something to work with, but it wouldn’t have actualized to the robust, savvy program that it now is.”

Scott Aycock
Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council
