Water Management & Technology
The University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder Mortenson Center in Global Engineering & Resilience and the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ State University ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Water Center recently prepared and edited a reportÌýoutliningÌýhow a variety of emerging technologies can help water managers, landowners and policymakers improve western water management in the face of severe, ongoing drought.
Ending Drought EmergenciesÌý
Using satellite and cellular connected sensors we are presently monitoring the water supplies of over a million people in arid Kenya and Ethiopia, expanding to over five million in 2018 and linking this data to regional water service providers and national policy makers in an effort to improve water services and drought resilience.
Global Engineering Education: A Shared Approach
A publication inÌýDevelopment Engineering spearheaded by the Mortenson Center seeks to create alignment among academic programs and sector needs when it comes to training engineers in global development. Over 100 participants from universities, donors, government agencies and industry partnersÌýestablished a comprehensive global engineering body of knowledge.
Better Planet Laboratory
Solving problems in development for a better and fairer planet. This work includes food security, climate change, biodiversity, human health, welfare and infrastructure. Assistant Professor Zia Mehrabi, PhD is focused on delivering impact through partnerships.Ìý
