Introduction to the Field Guide
This field guide serves as a pathway into the work of the International Wildlife Refuge Alliance (IWRA). Within these pages, you will find the strategies, partnerships, and opportunities that shape our mission to support and strengthen the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge.
Like a well-marked refuge trail, each section of this plan highlights a different point along the journey—from the programs that bring conservation to life, to the operational systems that sustain our work, to the measurable impacts that guide our progress. Together, they illustrate how thoughtful collaboration and strategic investment can expand the reach and resilience of wildlife refuges across the country.
We invite you to walk this path with us—to explore the ideas, opportunities, and partnerships that will help ensure these extraordinary landscapes continue to inspire, protect, and endure for generations to come.
