The MISSION of the Leopold Writing Program builds on Aldo Leopold's legacy as a writer by inspiring future environmental leaders to participate in the evolution of environmental ethics through the written word.
​
​The Leopold Writing Program seeks effective and inclusive ways to engage the next generation of citizen leaders in the urgent conversation about how to address the changing realities brought about by climate disruption, biodiversity loss, growing freshwater demands, and other global conservation issues. 

​One Mission.  Three Programs.  All Generations.
