"There is no hunger like land hunger,  and no object for which men are more ready to use unfair and desperate means  than the acquisition of land."
 —Gifford Pinchot

Research, outreach and advocacy for the reform of federal land exchange policy

The mission of the Western Land Exchange Project is to conduct research, outreach, and advocacy for the reform of federal land exchange policy.

Our work is aimed toward reforms to ensure that the consequences of land trades are disclosed and understood; that they advance the public interest, as required by law; and that alternatives to land exchanges be given serious consideration.

It is not our intent or purpose to oppose all exchanges, but neither will the Western Land Exchange Project endorse, facilitate, or proffer statements of support for any land trade.
