Abstract

Lake Superior Great Lakes One Water Community of Practice Overview Poster, 2023. The Lake Superior Great Lakes One Water (GLOW) Community of Practice (CoP) is a catalyst for collaborative community-engaged work on water quantity and quality challenges. GLOW is a supportive network of non-profit, municipal government and academic partners and is a space for connecting, sharing resources and building capacity to collectively increase our community’s resilience. Since its founding in 2018 the Lake Superior GLOW CoP has centered its work on equitably addressing and serving marginalized communities - those most vulnerable to and with the fewest means to adapt to water challenges. In this poster we share how GLOW is both fostering critical community-government collaborations and helping to communicate climate and water science in the western Lake Superior region. A special focus is a case study of current efforts in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Duluth, Minnesota where we are working with and engaging the community on visioning and implementation of green infrastructure solutions at the small, neighborhood block scale. GLOW’s framework for community engagement and CoP model can be applied and replicated by scientists and outreach professionals to build resilience to water challenges across the Great Lakes region.
