The Institute for Bioregional Studies

The Institute for Bioregional Studies is an organization dedicated to understanding and promoting sustainable living within specific geographic areas, called bioregions. It focuses on how natural ecosystems, communities, and resources interact and aims to develop strategies that support environmental health, social well-being, and local resilience. By studying these interconnected systems, the institute helps communities plan and implement practices that preserve biodiversity, reduce ecological impact, and foster a sense of stewardship over their natural environment. Its goal is to create more sustainable, self-reliant communities grounded in the unique characteristics of their local ecosystems.
