National Center for Science and Civic Education (NCSCE) and Science Education for New Civic Engagements and Responsibilities (SENCER) will be focusing on education and research on the critical civic challenge of water. Floods, droughts, toxins, pollution, sea level rise--all threaten human health and well-being. Indigenous people have always known that "Water is Life," and the use, misuse and waste of water is an existential matter for all humans. Current projects focus on building water literacy and the water workforce, and supporting wastewater research in the US and abroad to identify and track emerging disease outbreaks. A recent presentation of NCSCE Global Water Fellows project is here: Water: The Wickedest Problem
