In two NSF projects, INR is involved in the projects' broader impacts initiative through two fellowship programs:
The FireNet: Adaptation through Collaboration project (2020-2024) is an interdisciplinary team of scientists examining the social and biophysical mechanisms that shape the capacity of people in fire-prone landscapes to cope with and adapt to intensifying disturbance regimes. The SES Undergraduate Fellows Program. The fellows are supported through: (1) an orientation to the program and wildfires; (2) 5-session qualitative research methods course; (2) a 3-day SES Boot Camp in Bend, Oregon; (3) year-long learning, skill-building, networking, and engaging in research opportunities; and (4) mentoring by Dr. Dwaine Plaza and Dr. Lisa Gaines.
