ECOTRUST WORKS ACROSS THE REGION FROM CALIFORNIA TO ALASKA AT THE INTERSECTION OF EQUITY, THE ECONOMY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT. WE COLLABORATE WITH PARTNERS TO ADVANCE STEWARDSHIP OF LANDS AND WATERS IN WAYS THAT ARE ECOLOGICALLY AND CULTURALLY RESTORATIVE AND RACIALLY AND ECONOMICALLY JUST; BUILD BROADLY SHARED, INTERGENERATIONAL WEALTH FOR OUR REGION'S COMMUNITIES; AND SUPPORT REGIONAL CLIMATE RESILIENCE WHILE CENTERING THE NEEDS OF AND LEARNING FROM FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES. WE ARE TRANSFORMING INTO AN ANTI-RACIST ORGANIZATION WITH A CULTURE OF BELONGING AND RESILIENT BUSINESS MODEL, SUPPORTING WORK THAT IS SELF-DETERMINED AND COMMUNITY LED. OUR PROJECTS INCLUDE CO-FOUNDING THE COUNTRY'S FIRST ENVIRONMENTAL BANK; STARTING THE NATION'S FIRST ECOSYSTEM INVESTMENT FUND; CO-CREATING A RANGE OF PROGRAMS AND ORIGINAL RESEARCH IN FISHERIES, FORESTRY, AND FOOD SYSTEMS; AND DEVELOPING NEW SCIENTIFIC AND INFORMATION TOOLS TO IMPROVE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL DECISION-MAKING.
