About this program - What it is intended to do
We'd like this program to help accomplish five
things:
- Build a deeper understanding of
the structure and function of river systems based
on a five component framework (How Rivers Run).
- Share some lessons learned
through real stories illustrating some
consequences of ignoring the inter-relatedness
and complexity of river systems (River Stories).
- Explore the true worth of
healthy river systems and the many services and
benefits they provide (Value of a River).
- Offer a vision for better
management of river systems through inspiring
examples of numerous individuals (What We Can Do).
- Provide additional references
and resources to those who want to learn more and
do more (References
and Resources).
