Wonder is for everyone.
Protecting the beauty, ecologies, and accessibility of awe-inspiring places.
WHAT'S AT STAKE
Our Earth is irreplaceable.
Landscapes and delicate ecologies take millions of years to form, and provide the beauty and richness and biodiversity which make our planet unique.
THE PROBLEM
Many ill-informed developers or land managers adopt develop-at-any-cost approaches.
Short-sighted development projects and ineffective land management practices risk the ecologies and natural beauty of many of the most incredible places on Earth.
IORAA is doing something about it.
IORAA works to protect these beautiful places through small networks of policymakers, government officials, regulators, land managers, NGOs, funding partners, and most importantly, nonprofit and grassroots efforts at the threatened impact site.
​
We are concerned about who decides what happens to these places, why they choose one outcome over another, and whether they equitably considered all of the potential ramifications about what impacts the decisions could have on humans, wildlife, cultural and historic aspects, water, and beauty.
Our level of involvement can range from simply providing best practices from our network of collaborators, to a more hands on, heavier stance against those who would scar these invaluable places.
