Working collaboratively across all lands, agencies, and organizations, the 2-3-2 Partnership will coordinate efforts to reestablish natural fire regimes, promote resilient landscapes that protect and improve water and other natural resources for humans, wildlife, and plants, and support the economic and cultural resilience of communities within and connected to the 2-3-2 landscape.
By regularly convening diverse partners, promoting coordinated and collaborative planning, and supporting and elevating local efforts, the 2-3-2 Partnership aims to facilitate cooperation and information-sharing between organizations working toward watershed and landscape resilience in southern Colorado and northern New Mexico. Partners of the 2-3-2 are committed to integrating science and Indigenous knowledge to inform management strategies that support and enhance wildlife, aquatic health, and human communities alongside resilient forests and healthy watersheds.
