Grant Description
Working under the administration of the OR/WA State Community Assistance Program, the Watershed Research & Training Center (WRTC) and Fire Learning Network (FLN) serve as the project managers for the FAC Learning Network. Representatives from the OR/WA State Fire Adapted Communities are working with the WRTC and FLN to help steer the effort. Together, the WRTC and FLN have jointly designed and will administer the project working with leaders from pilot communities and regional hub leaders in both Oregon and Washington; providing technical guidance and support, facilitating communications, documenting learning, and aiding in sub‐regional workshops. They are also responsible for leveraging and integrating with existing efforts. Hub organization leaders will convene and facilitate workshops and peer learning exchanges with other public and private community‐based institutions and partnerships working on fire adaptation in their respective geographies (Oregon and Washington). The WRTC and FLN will convene national and state workshops, aggregate learning, and share across regions and with Bureau of Land Management program leaders, FAC Coalition members and other partners to aid in adapting programs and strategies over time. These collective efforts will promote collaboration among local, state, tribal, and federal partners at the community level and beyond, creating a multi‐scalar network and accelerating the growth of fire adapted communities.
