Mission: The Quivira Coalition fosters resilience on arid working lands. To create a culture of land stewardship that integrates ecological, economic, and social health, we work in coalition with ranchers, landowners and land managers, public agencies, conservationists, educators, students, and the general public. We believe this culture is rooted in three areas of practice: education, innovation, and collaboration. We advocate collaboration through the practice of the radical center, a way of working together that champions coalition building and results over compromise. At the foundation of all our work is the concept that effective and adaptive stewardship of working lands is one of the most powerful and immediately viable paths to remedy the imminent impacts of climate change.
