Purpose
The Project Pipeline fosters connections between project proponents and creates a more strategic process to help align aquatic restoration and conservation projects with the most appropriate and available funding source(s).
In addition, the Project Pipeline can provide the following:
- A proactive approach to having project lists readily accessible to respond to current and future legislative and policy opportunities, including creating and updating regional watershed plans and demonstrating demand for funding, which can help maintain or increase available resources.
- An enhanced ability for the region to quickly respond to notices of funding opportunities, which can have can have a short turn around time turn around time, while also creating opportunities to bundle or package projects together in an efficient process to be better able to pursue larger, more complex public funding opportunities that prioritize scale, diverse partnerships, and cross-boundary approaches.
- A way to visualize and quantify the gaps and opportunities for getting projects off the ground, from project approaches and how effective and competitive they are to capacity and skills gaps that exist within individual organizations.
- A systematic storytelling approach to documenting the successes of current and completed projects.
NOTE: The Project Pipeline is voluntary and all information remains confidential with the Network team and Project Pipeline team which includes representatives from American Rivers and the National Wildlife Federation.
