*All HCRI supported projects require students to work with and for community stakeholders and researchers at the university. Projects must align with one (or ideally more) of our research pillars, and must include a plan to share the results with the community stakeholders in a way that is meaningful to them.
** The HCRI is developing a scalable and transferable approach to identify and address the societal, economic, and environmental stresses that compromise a community or region’s quality of life and capacity for resilience. Our objectives include (1) creating a model for effective and sustainable community-research partnerships to foster a Resilience Community of Practice, (2) modeling resilience to identify and address the underlying conditions and chronic stresses that make adverse events impact specific populations disproportionally, and (3) using resilience action-planning to identify challenges and opportunities to improve to strengthen local and regional resilience. To translate science to action, we will create an interactive, user-friendly dashboard that is accessible to both experts and non-experts, and users of varied enablement. The HCRI will maintain and continue to build out this dashboard as we work with communities across Idaho. Your support will fund our pilot project with several cities across Idaho and help us plan for sustaining these efforts, which will include a multitude or education and workforce development opportunities, long term.
