Sustainable Funding for Watershed Health: Theory and Practice
March 21, 2017 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Tuesday, March 21, 1:30 – 3:00 Pacific, 2:30 – 4:00 Mountain
Dr. Tara Lynne Clapp, Columbia Basin Watershed Network and Iowa State University
Key Question: How can we attract funding for the important and valuable work that we do as watershed stewards?
Sustainable funding is a concern for watershed stewardship groups across the Basin. Most watershed stewardship groups rely on volunteer effort to accomplish the basics, with grant funding the go-to source for needed equipment, supplies, and larger project efforts.
Tara Clapp will introduce some of the ‘value frameworks’ that are used to create funding opportunities, and Gerry Nellestijn will relate his experience from the Salmo watershed with a encouraging a user-pay framework. In this webinar, we will re-examine some of the fundamentals of ‘value’ in watershed stewardship, and look at different approaches to matching the values we protect and provide to sources of funds.
