River Network has selected alumnus Kevin Jeffrey, Master of Landscape Architecture 2019, as the recipient of the inaugural Emerging Leader Award for his work on the Blue Index project.

The new Emerging Leader Award recognizes someone early in their professional career who deserves attention for their work at the intersection of water and equity. This award was inspired by former River Network board member Leslie Lowe, who was a strident supporter of investing in and recognizing new and younger voices and perspectives in the water arena.
