LiKEN

Livelihoods Knowledge Exchange Network (LiKEN) is a left-of-center environmental and economic policy advocacy organization. LiKEN is a self-described “link-tank” that works to connect communities and local-level organizations with non-profit groups and government agencies to influence public policy. The organization is most involved on economic and environmental issues, but also does work on social, cultural, and political issues. It focuses on communities in Central Kentucky, Central Appalachia, and certain Native American populations.
