International Rivers Mission is to protect rivers and defend the rights of communities<br />
that depend on them. We oppose destructive dams and the development model they advance,<br />
and encourage better ways of meeting people’s needs for water, energy and protection from<br />
damaging floods. We seek a world in which rivers and the life they support are valued, and<br />
where all people have a voice in decisions affecting their lives and livelihoods. We work toward<br />
a world where everyone has access to clean water and energy, and where development projects<br />
neither degrade nature nor destroy communities. Based in five continents, our staff has<br />
expertise in dams, energy and water policy, climate change, and international financial<br />
institutions. The focus of our work is in Latin America, Asia and Africa. Address: 2150<br />
