About the Great Plains Institute
Debate over how to manage the effects of a growing economy on our environment and quality of life is often complex and contentious, with capable and intelligent leaders coming down on all sides and with few safe places to talk to one another. At the Great Plains Institute, we harness the creative power of cooperation by bringing together key public and private leaders from across the northern plains to accelerate progress on critical development issues.

Invest in a better future!
