It aims to help cities and utilities finance infrastructure projects...
This federal Project Grant award of $447,911 from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) supports a three-year research project to explore how nature-based solutions can improve water security in peri-urban areas. Led by Oklahoma State University, the project involves student-led research conducted in partnership with colleagues in South Africa. The goal is to prepare U.S. students studying water resources and environmental science to address complex global water challenges through practical field-based research, cross-cultural collaboration, and public outreach. The research activities are based at the Water Hub living lab outside Cape Town, South Africa. This project equips emerging U.S. hydrologic and environmental scientists with the skills to conceptualize, execute, and communicate findings from field-based nature-based solutions research on decentralized water solutions.
