According to the Association, “These publications and projects, selected by AUPresses members, give context to current issues and events, offer solutions to global challenges, and present diverse voices in a broad range of disciplines.” Forging a Sustainable Southwest: The Power of Collaborative Conservation by Stephen H. Storm is featured in the Science & Environment section of the Step UP list. Forging a Sustainable Southwest introduces readers to four conservation efforts that provide insight into how diverse groups of citizens have worked collaboratively to develop visions for land use that harmonized sometimes conflicting ecological, economic, cultural, and community needs.
