Michigan’s cities are home to vibrant communities, rich cultural histories, and an untapped potential for conservation. Urban conservation focuses on transforming neighborhoods into greener, more healthy spaces while addressing challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, and inequitable access to nature. By investing in urban environments, we connect people to nature in meaningful ways and lay the foundation for resilient, inclusive communities.

Urban conservation is a powerful tool for addressing the challenges of today while building a sustainable, equitable future for all. By investing in our cities, we create a stronger connection between people and nature, ensuring that everyone — regardless of where they live — has access to the benefits of the great outdoors.
