About

Sky Island Alliance, Tucson

Sky Island Alliance is an organization dedicated to the preservation and restoration of native biological diversity in the sky islands of the southwestern United States and northwestern Mexico. These mountain islands are among the most diverse ecosystems in North America due to their great topographic complexity and unique location at the meeting point of several major desert and forest biological provinces. We conduct scientific research to provide a better basis for management and disseminate this information through environmental education programs that foster an appreciation for the sky islands and biological diversity in general. We advocate for effective management through cooperation with land owners and managers at all levels, for reform of land management policies, and for the formation of national and international reserves to be integrated into a network throughout North America
