CSS Research Faculty Traci Birch on UNO team that Recieves Oil Spill Grant Through Louisiana’s RESTORE Act Center of Excellence
Congratulations to Dr. Traci Birch who is a co-PI on a multi-university project called, “From Adapting in Place to Adaptive Migration: Designing and Facilitating an Equitable Relocation Strategy”. The project will evaluate populations in Terrebonne Parish to identify the opportunities and challenges in designing a relocation policy that retains traditional communities while reducing risk. The team plans to collect data by interviewing residents about their concerns and priorities regarding the role of government in helping them relocate, should they decide to move. A description of the project and team can be found here.
