DIRE-FEWS Workshops
The NSF SRS-RN Planning Grant covers workshops in the three Gulf States of Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Our workshops are intended to engage a diverse group of stakeholders, and bring perspectives on building a convergent research program towards solving critical societal challenges in the areas of food, energy, and water systems. The workshops will be thematically similar, but intended to capture the diversity in regional systems by focusing on local issues of interest.
We strongly encourage participants to register for the workshops here soon as seats are limited. If you are unable to attend the workshops in-person but still would like to participate and be informed about the DIRE-FEWS activities, please subscribe here.
