The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $315,618 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to the Regents of the University of Michigan to develop and study a justice-centered water literacy curriculum for 3rd-8th grade students in Black and Afro-Indigenous communities in southeast Louisiana. Over 4 years, the research team will work with approximately 16 teachers and 640 students to create curriculum units and professional development resources that amplify the community's experiential and historical knowledge about environmental water issues impacting their daily lives. The project aims to build relationships between communities and schools while exploring the justice dimensions of STEM topics. No subawards are planned for this grant.
