Great Plains Tribal Water Alliance Climate Partnership: Development of Water Resource Vulnerability Assessments Process and Guidebook

Project Timeline
January 2016 - December 2017

The goal of this project was to build technical capacity for conducting climate vulnerability assessments focused on the tribal water resources of four reservations—Rosebud, Pine Ridge, Standing Rock, and Flandreau—to demonstrate approaches for developing a water resources vulnerability assessment for each tribe; and to build technical capacity to develop their individual tribal climate adaptation plan and integrate it into other key tribal programmatic documents and processes.
