While rivers around the world are under continued threat from dams and
development, a growing grassroots crusade is rising up in response. From
Bosnia to Bolivia, Uganda to North Carolina, activists are raising their voices in
defense of the voiceless and fighting for the rivers that run through us all. We
salute these river warriors for their dedication and sacrifice in defending our
most important places.WE’RE ALL WATER
It’s not a moment, it’s a movement.
