DELTA INSTITUTE

Through our programs, Delta Institute is creating a more resilient, equitable, and innovative home for all Midwesterners-as we believe acting now is not only a pressing climate change issue, but also an issue of environmental justice... Delta Institute is proud to serve as an EPA Region 5 Environmental Finance Center (EFC) in Category 2: Regional Water Infrastructure-so that more communities have access to cleaner, healthier, and more equitable water resources... Delta Institute supports 1,000 farmers as they transition to sustainable and regenerative practices, thus improving the environment, mitigating the impacts of climate change, and strengthening a farmer's bottom line. We forecast that by 2025, one million Midwestern agricultural acres will successfully transition to conservation-focused farming practices, so our region's primary economic driver can be more environmentally and financially sound.
