ALT GIS 101: Learning to Map in the Digital Age will help you learn the basics of Geographic Informations System (GIS) and start making your own maps! This course will help you use GIS software to make maps in your community and beyond. Participants will gain insight into GIS software and explore a variety of free, relatively easy-to-use GIS programs. Useful as a comfortable first step for people with no GIS experience, as well as, for relatively new GIS users looking for more information.

ALT Dynamics of Risk and Resilience in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. This project will convene UNH researchers and partners to identify populations at greatest risk for COVID-19 and its stress-related impacts, and to develop data-driven, place-based capacities that enable communities to adapt to a changing world. Social distancing and limiting public activity are the most effective actions that can be taken to prevent viral transmission, but these actions can place further strain on vulnerable individuals and families. The researchers will utilize a complex socio-ecological systems (SES) approach that frames vulnerability in terms of three key drivers: exposure, sensitivity or susceptibility and adaptive capacity, which includes individual, community and system-level responses to a crisis that can increase resilience over time. The results of this project will inform data-driven insights to help protect public health, including the most vulnerable members of our communities.

ALT The COVID-19 pandemic presents challenges that can only be solved through multidisciplinary collaborations. "UNH is committed to public-impact research that solves the most pressing problems facing New Hampshire and the world. The COVID-19 pandemic presents challenges that can only be solved through multidisciplinary collaborations,” says Marian McCord, senior vice provost for research, economic engagement and outreach. “The proposals were outstanding, and our research development team is committed to assisting each team in seeking external funding to support the proposed work.
