“Developing Resilient Communities & Workforce Capacity in the ‘Hot Deserts’ of North America”

University of New Mexico, Universidad de Sonora, and Instituto Tecnológico de Hermosillo will develop a bilateral student mobility program in response to regional and international need concerning the potential for droughts, wildfires, and flashfloods. Students will develop regional-specific scientific knowledge around resilient materials on the hot deserts of North America and will enhance academic preparation and focused workforce development.
