This $100,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support a planning project titled "PLANNING: CRISES: SCIENCE COMMUNICATION FOR RESILIENT ENVIRONMENTS AND SOCIETIES (SCORES)." The project aims to investigate how people judge threats and make decisions in response to environmental hazards, such as wildfires and landslides, in order to develop more effective science communication methods. It will take a transdisciplinary, convergent, and collaborative approach, working with historically marginalized and vulnerable communities to identify key opportunities and challenges. The project will integrate theories on mental models, risk communication, and decision-making to produce a strategic plan that captures the current research landscape, identifies gaps and opportunities, and aligns with community needs. The University of Oregon is the lead awardee and plans to issue subawards as part of this effort.
