The Tulane Institute on Water Resources Law and Policy works to foster understanding of the complex relationship between people and water. We are located in New Orleans, where water surrounds us. This provides us with a unique vantage point on the front lines of water law and policy. We provide law and policy analysis to decision makers and the public to ensure that water and the ecosystems it supports are maintained for future generations while providing for the needs of the people today. We work with a broad spectrum of institutions and individuals to incorporate science, engineering, and resource management practices to meet our society's ecologic, cultural, and economic needs.
