Practical projects, built in the open.
Every initiative pairs technical rigor with community input. Here is where our coalition is putting data and regeneration into practice right now.
Climate Risk Dashboard
An open, map-based dashboard tracking flood risk, urban heat exposure, sea-level rise, and resilience investment across every Miami-Dade neighborhood — built for residents, planners, and researchers alike.
Regenerative Finance Lab
Piloting community-owned financial models — from ReFi mechanisms to local resilience bonds — that channel capital into circular economy and coastal-adaptation projects.
Civic Science Fellowship
Pairing students and volunteer engineers with community organizations to collect, clean, and publish local environmental data that would otherwise stay locked away.
XR Resilience Studio
Using immersive and extended-reality tools built with partners like XR Labs to help residents visualize flood scenarios and future coastal design before they happen.
Neighborhood Data Corps
Training volunteers in every Miami-Dade district to gather ground-truth environmental data — heat, air quality, flooding — that feeds directly into the Climate Risk Dashboard.
Open Policy Briefings
Translating open data into plain-language briefings for local officials and community boards, so resilience decisions are made with the best available evidence.
