The Gulf Research Program & Robert Wood Johnson Foundation: Enhancing Coastal Community Resilience
Posted: 8/16/2016 (Funding)
This is a broad call for scientifically-sound research and practice projects that will develop information, test strategies, and provide evidence that can be used by communities to enhance their resilience to the adverse impacts of climate change, severe weather, and major environmental disasters, such as oil spills, in ways that also improve well-being. Grants will support the development of research and practices that focus on the human dynamics of resilience, specifically, in projects that enhance community resilience and well-being by accounting for the influence of social, cultural, and health factors on a community’s capacity to adapt and thrive as part of efforts to mitigate and respond to the adverse impacts of climate change, severe weather, and major environmental disasters.
