The Lake Superior Binational Program represents a partnership of federal, state, provincial, and First Nations/tribal governments working together with citizens to ensure the protection of the Lake Superior basin ecosystem. The Lake Superior Binational Forum is a citizen stakeholder group of Americans and Canadians who work together to provide input to governments about these efforts and to educate basin residents about ways to protect and restore the lake basin's natural resources.
The Forum is funded in the U.S. by the Environmental Protection Agency/Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. The U.S. Coordinator is located at the Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute at Northland College in Ashland, Wisconsin.
