Data collection in progress
Koitajoki Watershed
Finland
Problem: The Koitajoki watershed is an iconic landscape for both its biodiversity value and its cultural heritage. The more people who can learn about this special area and are interested in its preservation, the higher the chances of successful conservation, restoration and cultural preservation, as well as increased tourism to the region.
Action: Snowchange gains international recognition through its work in the area, raising the watershed’s profile and awareness of issues threatening its persistence.
Indicator: Increased traffic to the Koitajoiki website will be a proxy for the increasing awareness of Snowchange Cooperation and its restoration priorities.
