Catalytic Conservation Finance Platform
A Catalytic Conservation Finance Platform would make it easy and inexpensive to launch regional, topical or programmatic revolving loan funds to finance land acquisition and protection, habitat restoration, water projects, regenerative agriculture practices, nature based solutions and other climate resilience initiatives.
Catch Together Collective
Since early 2022, LegacyWorks Group has been playing a central role in the evolution of Catch Together, a nonprofit program helping small-scale fishermen and heritage fishing communities ensure they retain access and continue to steward and conserve their local fisheries.
Sentinel Landscapes
Sentinel Landscapes are federally designated priority areas that contain high priority lands for multiple federal and state agencies along with military installations of national importance to the Department of Defense. LegacyWorks Group is supporting the evolution of the program at the national and local levels to better enable each Sentinel Landscape Partnership to set and achieve highly ambitious, landscape scale conservation, community and climate resilience goals.
Cabo Pulmo and the Opportunity to Thrive
For over two decades, almost as long as Cabo Pulmo National Park has existed, I have had the privilege of visiting and working with the community of Cabo Pulmo in Southern Baja California, Mexico, first with international conservation organizations like the World Wildlife Fund, then as a concerned citizen, and now with LegacyWorks Group.
Boca Del Alamo Community and Resource Restoration Initiative
The Boca del Alamo community wants to learn from and follow Cabo Pulmo. LegacyWorks has been invited to assist in formally exploring land and marine protection, hand in hand with social and economic development.
Regenerative Development Working Group
To support sustainable coastal development, LegacyWorks is facilitating a diverse working group of community leaders, environmental advocates and developers to dialogue toward consensus on a technically rigorous conservation-based vision for the East Cape.
Public Policy
Land use planning policies in both Los Cabos and La Paz municipalities (which overlap in Cabo del Este) lag behind the realities of current development and represent scant protection for critical environmental or social values.
East Cape Impact Expedition
In November 2019, 60+ engaged actors explored Baja California Sur’s Cabo del Este region aboard the MV Sea Lion. The journey was designed to engage and harness the collective wisdom of participants.
Landowner Carbon Farm Plans
In partnership with the Cachuma Resources Conservation District, LegacyWorks helps owners of working lands to plan and implement regenerative agricultural and grazing management practices to increase the rate at which carbon is captured and reduce the rate at which it is lost or emitted.
Teton Groundwater Recharge Market
It all begins with an idea.
