Restoring ecosystems to rebuild lives.
For millions of people, clean water, fertile soil, and abundant natural resources mean food on the table, a stable income, and the chance to thrive. But when ecosystems are disrupted—whether through pollution, deforestation, or the impacts of climate change—communities are left vulnerable, facing poverty, hunger, health crises, and displacement.
At EcoWB, we believe the key to solving these challenges lies in partnership. By connecting our global network of volunteer expertise with local knowledge, we work hand in hand with local people to restore ecosystems, empower communities, and create solutions that last.
What EcoWB is doing to help:
- Restoring vital habitats: From protecting coastal ecosystems that shield communities and support marine life, to preserving rainforests and wetlands vital for biodiversity, to restoring rivers, farmlands, and urban green spaces that sustain both people and wildlife.
- Improving livelihoods: Equipping communities with sustainable farming, fishing, and resource management practices that not only secure their futures but also ensure the long-term health of the ecosystems they depend on.
- Building community resilience:
Providing tools, training, and support to help communities prepare for challenges, protect their homes, families and livelihoods, and create lasting solutions for the future.
From the Gulf of California to the wetlands of Kenya, EcoWB’s work is making an impact. Restored ecosystems mean thriving communities, and empowered people mean a healthier planet. Together, we can ensure that the people most affected by environmental crises have the resources to build a better future for themselves and their environments.
Why EcoWB’s Work Matters:
People depend on healthy ecosystems to survive:
Clean water, fertile soil, and thriving marine life provide food, livelihoods, and security for billions. But when ecosystems are degraded or disrupted, communities can face poverty, hunger, health crises, and displacement.
Environmental crises are escalating:
Climate change, pollution, and deforestation are accelerating, threatening ecosystems and the people who rely on them.
EcoWB volunteers provide scalable, sustainable solutions:
We empower communities to tackle challenges in ways that are scientifically sound, culturally appropriate, and built to endure
It's about justice and equity:
The people least responsible for environmental damage are often the hardest hit. We work to ensure they have the support, tools, and resources to thrive.
A healthy planet is essential for all life:
Protecting ecosystems locally has a global impact. Restoring mangroves, for example, helps mitigate climate change worldwide.
EcoWB builds hope and resilience:
Through volunteer collaboration, we help communities protect their way of life and their futures, offering hope where it’s needed most.
