This $650,920 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079), aims to investigate the vulnerabilities of community-managed water systems to climate change impacts and identify opportunities to strengthen their resilience. The project will focus on five climate-vulnerable locations globally, including indigenous communities in Kenya, South Sudan, Norway, Canada, and Alaska. Through a combination of climate scenario modeling and local stakeholder engagement, the project will create action plans to support climate resilience and water security goals for these communities. The project's broader impacts include developing a global toolkit for co-producing water resilience action plans that can be scaled for use by the 3.2 billion people projected to face water insecurity by 2050. The University of Colorado is the lead institution for this inter-disciplinary, international research effort, with planned sub-awards to support the work across the target regions.
