Action across multiple sectors is necessary to slow wetland drainage and degradation. Within the community sector, broad involvement in water conservation actions (WCAs), such as volunteering personal time to make wetland improvements and contacting elected officials to advocate for wetland conservation, has direct impacts on wetland resources and plays a role in shifting structures, laws, practices, and policies related to wetland conservation. Unfortunately, participation in wetland conservation is rarely studied. As such, it is not understood at what level individuals are participating in WCAs, although preliminary research suggests that participation is low, or what factors facilitate participation in such activities. This project addresses these knowledge gaps by collecting information on people’s connection to wetlands, their concern, or lack thereof, regarding wetland loss, and their level of involvement in WCAs. This information can be used by state and federal agencies, conservation organizations, and others interested in wetland conservation, to empower widespread participation in WCAs.
