Happening NOW! Tune in to Letting Rivers Run Free, a powerful online panel with 3 Goldman Prize winners sharing how grassroots movements are winning big for rivers 💧

Josh Klemm (Josh Klemm) of International Rivers opens Letting Rivers Run Free by reminding us: this is a watershed moment. From legal victories to historic dam removals, communities are proving that river protection works. The Goldman Environmental Prize

Bestiana from EcoAlbania shares the hard-won story of the Vjosa River—one of Europe’s last truly wild rivers. After more than a decade of resistance, the Vjosa and its tributaries are now fully protected. A victory for ecosystems, science, and communities alike. The Goldman Environmental Prize

Olsi (EcoAlbania) shares insights on the Vjosa’s protection journey. While declaring it a National Park was a crucial step, it's not the final victory—50% of dams in the Balkans are planned in protected areas. 🚫 The fight continues, and staying vigilant is key. The Goldman Environmental Prize

Brook reflects on the historic Klamath Dam removals—the largest dam removal project in history, and the changes are already visible. 🌊🐟 In under a year: ✅ 6,000+ salmon returned ✅ Toxic algae reduced significantly ✅ Cleaner fishing nets & more fish The Goldman Environmental Prize

We’re so proud to have nominated Mariluz (Huaynakana Kamatahuara Kana) for The Goldman Environmental Prize, and thrilled she deservedly won! 🌍🏆 Her decision to pursue legal personhood for the river comes from a deep, sacred connection.

Avecita from Moore Charitable emphasizes the crucial intersection of forest & freshwater conservation. The Goldman Environmental Prize

Mari Luz (Huaynakana Kamatahuara Kana) speaks not just as a guardian of the river—but as part of a powerful movement of Indigenous women. The Goldman Environmental Prize

Last week in San Francisco, we gathered with river defenders to celebrate Mari Luz (Huaynakana Kamatahuara Kana) and her community's groundbreaking achievement: securing legal personhood for Peru's majestic Marañón River — a victory that creates a powerful precedent for waterways globally.

Historic win for #LakeTiticaca! The Regional Government of Puno, #Peru, has officially recognized Lake Titicaca as a subject of rights —thanks to the leadership of women defenders who have long sought protection of its sacred waters #DerechosDeLaNaturaleza #RoN
