About 35% of homes in the Navajo Nation are not connected to central power or drinking water systems. To address this issue, this National Science Foundation Research Traineeship (NRT) award to the University of Arizona, in partnership with Dine College and Navajo Technical University, will develop a diverse STEM workforce with intercultural awareness and multidisciplinary knowledge/skills for high priority research in sustainable food, energy, and water systems (FEWS). Such systems are appropriate in many remote regions of the world.
