National Wetlands Awards

The National Wetlands Awards are annual honors recognizing individuals, organizations, and agencies in the United States who have made outstanding contributions to the conservation and management of wetlands. These awards highlight efforts such as protecting wetlands, restoring degraded areas, and educating the public about their importance. By showcasing exemplary work, the awards encourage continued conservation and raise awareness about the vital role wetlands play in supporting biodiversity, filtering water, and mitigating climate change impacts. They are organized by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other partners to promote effective wetlands stewardship across the country.
