Water First
The communities that Water First collaborates with are interested in building technical skills and strengthening capacity for independent resource management. These communities have identified education and training as a key component to managing water resources and tracking the effects of climate change. Through partnership with communities, Water First has designed training modules that cover topics related to water quality, data management, climate change, and fish conservation. Our Community-Based Water Projects Program is adaptable to meet individuals and communities where they are at.
