Historical NoteReturn to Top
The Northwest Renewable Resources Center was established in 1984 by a group of people representing the corporate, tribal, environmental and government sectors of the region. Services included conflict assessment, process design, dialogue facilitation, mediation and training in cross-cultural communications. The organization, which was disbanded in January 1998, mediated natural resource and environmental policy disputes in Washington, Idaho, Alaska and Oregon.
