NSF grant awarded to Kurt Kipfmueller and his community partners

Kurt Kipfmueller and his collaborative team have received a NSF grant entitled: "FIRE-PLAN: Merging diverse knowledge systems to advance restoration of fire-dependent lands and cultures in the Great Lakes region." 

 

This NSF PLAN award provides funding support for a series of ceremonies, listening sessions, field trips, and workshops to bring together Fire Ecologists, Fire Practitioners, and Indigenous Knowledge Practitioners from across the Great Lakes Region. It is seed funding to facilitate the group's work to co-produce a larger-scale project proposal to the NSF Dynamics of Integrated Socio-Ecological Systems (DISES) Program.
