This planning award supports development of a community partnership addressing food, energy, and water (FEW) security concerns in rural Alaska. The PI team will meet with community members both virtually and in person to build trust and discuss the local challenges to FEW security in a remote rural context. Through a series of workshops, meetings, and consultations, the PI team and community members will explore issues such as infrastructure, the built environment of the village, and social factors that affect security and resilience. This participatory project lays the foundation for a community-based study of food, energy and water security. With planning support, the PI team will form an advisory board and conduct a series of engagement activities to build a relationship with the community and help the researchers better understand residents’ needs and concerns. A series of formal and informal meetings and workshops will be held, providing residents with multiple opportunities to participate. Two workshops will focus on perceptions of food, energy and water among children ages six through nine. Informed by these activities and the advisory board, the PI team will develop a place-based challenge-solution matrix, which will be refined through community input. The final matrix will be distributed to community members as a poster. This matrix will be the basis for a community-centered research proposal addressing the most salient FEW questions identified during the planning process.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该规划奖支持发展社区伙伴关系，解决阿拉斯加农村地区的粮食、能源和水（FEW）安全问题。PI团队将通过虚拟方式和亲自与社区成员会面，以建立信任并讨论在偏远农村地区FEW安全面临的当地挑战。通过一系列研讨会，会议和磋商，PI团队和社区成员将探讨基础设施，村庄的建筑环境以及影响安全和复原力的社会因素等问题。这一参与性项目为基于社区的粮食、能源和水安全研究奠定了基础。在规划支援下，研究小组将成立谘询委员会，并举办一系列的社区参与活动，以建立与社区的关系，并帮助研究人员更好地了解居民的需要和关注。将举行一系列正式和非正式会议和研讨会，为居民提供多种参与机会。两个讲习班将侧重于6至9岁儿童对食物、能源和水的看法。根据这些活动和咨询委员会的信息，PI团队将制定一个基于地点的挑战-解决方案矩阵，并通过社区投入进行完善。最终的矩阵将作为海报分发给社区成员。这个矩阵将是一个以社区为中心的研究建议的基础，解决规划过程中确定的最突出的少数问题。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
