About this grant
The Conference of Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Governors and Premiers is an important organization in the region, providing a platform for the chief executives of the eight Great Lakes states and two Canadian provinces to convene and help advance protection and encourage sustainable development of this finite resource. With support from the Mott Foundation, the grantee will host a leadership summit in Cleveland, Ohio which serves as a launching pad for critical projects that benefit the environment and citizens in the region. Held every two years, the summit brings together hundreds of leaders to focus on the most important issues facing the Great Lakes and sets an agenda for policy moving forward.
