What's WIIN?

The Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC) and The Nature Conservancy’s Great Rivers Partnership established the Great Rivers & Upstream Heroes Watershed Implementation and Innovation Network (WIIN) to strengthen watershed projects throughout the Mississippi River Basin.

 

This website is the hub of a new, online community – a network that provides a forum for information sharing, easy access to experts and resources from across the Basin, and capacity-building webinars. It’s an online place for learning, brainstorming and inspiration.
