Rust to Green Binghamton: Living with Water Initiative

In 2014, building on its success in Utica, New York, Rust to Green Binghamton (R2GB) began in Binghamton, NY. Through its first official project called Living with Water, funded by a USDA Hatch and Smith-Lever grant, university and community partners began convening and undertaking a collective community-engaged research project addressing Binghamton’s vulnerability to climate change and flooding. Living with Water’s grounding in place, its emphasis on local voice and empowerment and its action-research methodology have given rise to a project that fosters community decision-making and development contributing to Binghamton’s urban resilience and sustainability.
