Stay tuned for the launch of this new coalition effort
Rights of Nature Initiative (RONI) is a new coalition project in development focused on collaboration, education, and connection around rights of nature concepts in Washington State.
This page is a brief introduction while the coalition framework and full project website continue to take shape.
What RONI is
RONI is being developed as a collaborative space for organizations, tribal organizations, community groups, legal advocates, professionals, educators, and others working in alignment with rights of nature principles.
Its purpose is to help build relationships, share knowledge, and strengthen collaboration across Washington-based efforts connected to watershed protection, ecological justice, legal strategy, and community action.
There is no cost to participate. RONI is intended as a coalition for collaboration, education, networking, and coordination.
