Interface of Change

Community-driven research on marine harvested and farmed species

Interface of Change is the sixth phase of �Ӱ�ԭ�� NSF EPSCoR. A $20-million award from the National Science Foundation funds this statewide, five-year project to build capacity for co-developed, use-inspired research across the Gulf of �Ӱ�ԭ��.

Resilience in the Gulf of �Ӱ�ԭ��

Interface of Change centers partnerships between researchers, Gulf of �Ӱ�ԭ�� community members, Tribes, educators, and entrepreneurs. Through these connections, project participants work collaboratively to investigate the resilience of marine species that are critical to the subsistence way of life as well as developments in the mariculture economy in the Gulf of �Ӱ�ԭ��.
