Alaska Wilderness League is a non-profit focused on protecting Alaska’s wild lands and waters from threats such as oil development, logging, and climate change. Based in Washington, DC, and founded in 1993, it positions itself as a dedicated advocate working to preserve key public lands like the Tongass National Forest, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, and the Arctic Ocean, engaging both citizens and decision makers in its efforts. The organization’s work targets public understanding and policy outcomes that safeguard Alaska’s natural landscapes and wildlife, including beluga whales, seals, salmon rivers, polar bears, and caribou, for public enjoyment.

With a relatively small staff, the league operates within the environmental sector and seeks to influence policy and public opinion through ongoing campaigns and educational efforts. A recent development noted is the addition of a new team member, reflecting ongoing organizational activity. The group serves conservation stakeholders and the broader public interested in preserving Alaska’s wild ecosystems for future generations.
