Overview | Current Participants | Participants by County*

IGEL is based, in part, on the belief that solutions come from a diversity of people representing the various needs, opinions, ethnic and cultural communities, bases of power, and economic resources of the people of Georgia.

IGEL encourages participation from:

• agriculture
• businesses
• civic groups
• concerned citizens
• educational institutions
• environmental organizations
• forestry
• governments
• industries
• neighborhood groups

IGEL is an educational and personal development experience. It enhances participants’ leadership skills and improves their understanding of complex environmental issues.

While IGEL does not attempt to create a consensus of opinions or promote a specific issue, participants are better prepared to take action and make a difference in the lives of others.
