Convergence Research to Tackle Grand Challenges:
A Unified Response to the Contamination of the Rio Motagua Basin

This innovative program will provide training in convergence research by building interdisciplinary teams to successfully tackle challenges for students from the U.S., Honduras, and Guatemala. Students and faculty from each institution will complete an in-person exchange to strengthen their connections and collaboration. In addition, these visits will be used to outline further collaborative activities such as COIL and study abroad opportunities to further the objectives of the program.
