Programs - International Rivers works with river-dependent and dam-affected communities to ensure their voices are heard and their rights are respected. International Rivers helps to build well-resourced, active networks of civil society groups to advocate for healthy rivers. International Rivers undertakes independent, investigative research, generating robust data and evidence to inform policies and campaigns. International Rivers exposes and resists destructive projects, while also engaging with all relevant stakeholders, including industry and policymakers, to develop a vision and energy and water solutions that protect rivers and the communities that depend upon them.
