As environmental challenges become more complex, our country urgently needs platforms for engaging business, government, nonprofits, and the academic community in constructive dialogue and devising new ways of resolving issues. The William K. Reilly Fund for Environmental Governance and Leadership, named in honor of one of the most respected environmental leaders in the nation, furthers the Center for Environmental Policy's mission of evaluating and improving environmental governance in the United States. Our partnerships with philanthropic, corporate, and nonprofit organizations allow institutions and groups to work together to anticipate, manage, and resolve issues related to the state of the natural environment, and to enhance their relationships to the nation's economic health and social wellbeing. The Reilly Fund supports a student scholarship, an annual lecture series, and core program development activities for the center, in addition to the William K. Reilly Environmental Leadership Award, which recognizes leaders in environmental governance and problem-solving.
