This $150,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program will fund the development of a regional sustainable systems research network focused on food and water systems in the Washington D.C. region. Over an 11-month period ending January 2023, Georgetown University will work with academic, industry, government and non-profit partners to lay the groundwork for a collaborative network that maps challenges, envisions sustainable solutions, and measures progress across jurisdictional boundaries. Specifically, the network will take an initial multi-stakeholder perspective to understand food and water needs and equity issues in the region, define a shared vision for meeting these needs sustainably, and develop tools and processes to realize that vision. Findings will inform the potential expansion of the network to encompass other basic resource needs and regional sustainability efforts.
