Midwest Climate Collaborative developing regional research agenda

The Midwest Climate Collaborative, which launched in January 2022, is a cross-sector member organization that aims to advance climate action in the region. One of its projects seeks to develop a Midwest-wide Research Agenda to identify knowledge gaps between research and practice in the climate change research space. They are seeking a wide range of questions covering natural, applied, social science, and policy.

MCC would like to hear from you! Share your questions with them: Here are two prompts to help as you think about your questions:

• What research question, if answered, would substantially advance our understanding of climate impacts and solutions across diverse sectors and populations in the US Midwest?

• What question, if answered, will help you do the climate action work you need to do?

Additionally, as we identify these questions, we’re seeking volunteers to serve on the working group. If this is something you’re interested in, let us know here.
