Ecotrust
Building Sustainable Economies
Problem:
What is reliable prosperity? Ecotrust works to address the fundamental needs of people and the ecosystems that sustain them as the starting point for a different kind of economic prosperity-one which can endure generation after generation.
Program:
Ecotrust's role is to innovate, invest and inspire. Founded in 1991, we work from California to Alaska taking inspiration and guidance from native and indigenous peoples and focusing on the natural competitive advantages of the bioregion, including forests, fisheries, and food and farms with a goal of creating systemic change.
Progress:
Ecotrust measures success by the power and practice of our ideas. We convey our ideas here and abroad through stories of practice at home. Our framework is designed to support local communities and ecosystems. We believe it provides a foundation for resilience-the ability to bounce back after inevitable stress.
