There is a green infrastructure research opportunity that recent graduates may be interested in. The application deadline is October 4, 2021 at 3pm ET.
EPA supports community health and resilience through its programs, including, but not limited to, those focused on water efficiency and green infrastructure. EPA has an interest in ensuring equity and seeking environmental justice for underrepresented populations while being sensitive to “green gentrification” concerns. As the agency and states look to implement sustainable water solutions in communities, it is important to ensure that all members in the community benefit from programs.
Research Project: As part of their research project, the participant will analyze data, evaluate programs, identify equitable development practices, and use geostatistical tools to assess how programs are being carried out at the local level and whether they can better ensure benefits are available to all citizens. The project will inform a report with findings and recommendations.
