Broad Participation in Restoration Decision-Making Ensures Far-Reaching Benefits
For restoration to serve all of the Estuary’s communities, it is critical to have broad participation in decisions about where publicly-funded restoration is located and what benefits are provided. Decision-makers must have adequate access to and influence on the process of decision-making in order to ensure their perspectives are addressed.
Community members gather to discuss green stormwater infrastructure through the Green Stormwater Infrastructure by and for Communities project. SFEI.
