A visit to Milwaukee to explore the economic development of coastal communities would be incomplete without meeting with representatives from Milwaukee Riverkeeper, a science-based NGO advocating passionately for water quality, wildlife habitats, and land management.

We are also very grateful to Juan Alsace, former U.S. Consul General to Toronto and President of the Milwaukee Riverkeeper Board, for sharing his perspective on the pivotal role of NGOs in driving positive change.
