We are building human capital
Coordinating and implementing actions to improve water quality requires a variety of skills, a breadth of knowledge, and a lot of motivation.
The Confluence creates a central place for watershed leaders to access training, resources, and peer learning opportunities that can build their skills, knowledge, and confidence – their human capital – for success. We also accelerate innovation in training by cultivating collaborations between watershed educators.
We are building a community of practice
The work of watershed professionals, farmers, and others who are trying to implement solutions to improve water quality can often feel isolating.
The Confluence takes the loneliness out of this work and connects like-minded peers, so they can learn from other, avoid recreating wheels, and feel part of something bigger.
We are building visibility for watershed leaders
We believe that to achieve clean water goals, society needs to invest more in people. Change happens because people such as watershed professionals and farmers make it happen.
The Confluence amplifies the stories, successes, and needs of watershed leaders to showcase their value to solving our water challenges and help them feel seen and supported.
Join us, because connections make us stronger.
