Freshwater Health Index (FHI)
There is a critical gap between how we understand and monitor the ways we are altering the world’s freshwater ecosystems — and how those changes impact people. The Freshwater Health Index measures the overall health of a watershed by making clear connections between the ecosystem and the benefits it provides to people.
The Freshwater Health Index is a web-based tool that measures system health by making clear connections between freshwater ecosystems, the benefits they provide to people, and the governance system in place.
