As a boundary organization, CWI works at the intersection of policy, science, and implementation to develop scalable, sustainable, and meaningful resilience measures on the ground.

The Watershed Research and Training Center and @ecoworkprog_uo are conducting a follow-up to their 2020 Capacity and Needs Assessment and want to place-based orgs working on CA #wildfireresilience. Take this survey by Nov. 20 to support their efforts: oregon.qualtrics.com/jfe/for….

Our new report, co-authored with @EPIConservation, highlights critical recommendations for hazardous fuels data inventorying across UT, WY & CO, and proposes a multi-state governance roadmap to address the major challenges we identified: policyinnovation.org/insight….

Funds to prepare your home for wildfire exist. Most California homeowners just don’t know about them. ResilientHomeFund.org matches you to grants and rebates in minutes. Stop guessing and start applying. Visit resilienthomefund.org to get started.

Nearly 25% of global CO2 emissions since 2000 have come from forest fires, yet we keep funding response and recovery rather than prevention. A new film from @World_Forestry, makes the case for what actually works. Watch online or see it in Portland: youtube.com/watch?v=lAr79REf….

We just kicked off the Wildfire Ready Design Challenge, an interdisciplinary student competition sponsored by @PGE4Me, reimagining what wildfire-resilient neighborhoods could look like and feasibly implement. Learn more: climateandwildfire.org/cwi-p….

Proud to share a new #blog post from our @ITEPnau intern, Haiwee Fredericks, on what meaningful relationship-building with Indigenous entities actually requires — intention, preparation, and accountability. Read here: climateandwildfire.org/post/….

Prescribed fire could cut harmful air pollution by nearly half. Working with CWI, @UCLA students modeled the Teakettle Prescribed Burn and found it would have reduced PM2.5 emissions by 46% compared to the #GarnetFire that occurred instead.

CWI's Cricket Baldwin joined Ralph Bloemers & crew for a shoot day in Mt. Aukum & Folsom, CA last week to film new #wildfiremitigation content to help homeowners harden their homes before #fireseason. Check out Fire Safe People TV on YouTube: bit.ly/44wNSgw.

We're pleased to welcome Haiwee Fredericks to the team as our Summer 2026 @ITEPnau Air Quality Intern! Haiwee will design and lead a strategic communications campaign amplifying Indigenous-led fire management & Tribal co-stewardship/co-management policy efforts across the U.S.

The barrier to #wildfireresilience isn't a lack of data or tools — it's the gap between insight and coordinated action. Read more from our 2026 Convening Report: bit.ly/4uCWEV6.
