Alaska Wilderness League: Protecting Alaska’s Wild Legacy

At Alaska Wilderness League (AWL), we believe that Alaska’s wild landscapes are among the last truly untamed places on Earth—places that sustain people, cultures, and biodiversity. Our mission is to protect Alaska’s wild lands and waters by engaging citizens and decision-makers to support conservation efforts that ensure these irreplaceable ecosystems endure for future generations.

Founded in 1993, AWL has become a national leader in Arctic and Alaskan conservation, advocating for lasting protections for public lands and advancing climate resilience. We work closely with Alaska-based partners, Indigenous communities, scientists, and advocates nationwide to build a unified, inclusive movement for wilderness protection.

AWL operates alongside its 501(c)(4) affiliate, Alaska Wilderness League Action, allowing us to engage across advocacy, policy, and education strategically. Together, the League and its affiliates form a dynamic and mission-driven organization of approximately 18 staff members and a 15-member Board of Directors composed of conservation and civic leaders from across the country. Our work is guided by respect for people, place, and the planet.
