The Hawai'i Association of Watershed Partnerships (HAWP) was established in 2003 to build public and private support for watershed protection. More than 50 public and private partners — representing nine watershed partnerships and six islands — belong to the Association. Together they are working to protect 850,000 acres of critical forestlands. Through cooperative fundraising, the Association seeks to develop the capacity of island-based watershed partnerships to manage and protect our watershed forests.Below is a map of all the watershed partnerships that comprise our association.
