SSPG members part of NSF CHIRRP award.

Dr. Patrick Bixler is a Co-PI, and Jacquie Moss and Deidra Miniard serve as team members on the CHIRRP proposal (Confronting Hazards, Impacts and Risks for a Resilient Planet) recently awarded to the LBJ Extreme Weather Adaptation Lab. The project, Texas Weather: Whole-community Efforts to Adapt, THrive, and Enhance Resilience, aims to address the challenges communities face from weather-related disasters.

Texas WEATHER project will employ a co-production approach to develop research questions based on the reciprocal exchange of experiential and scientific knowledge between community partners, hazard scientists, and policy specialists. The project will unfold over two years to develop actionable solutions for community-scale resilience.
