The Town Hall was a capstone event for NM EPSCoR’s project—NM SMART Grid Center— a five-year, $24 million, NSF-funded project focused on research and workforce training for next-generation electric power production and delivery.

Carlsbad New Mexico residents don't miss the Carlsbad Community Conversation on June 27th, 4pm-7pm at the Pecos River Valley Convention Center, Room 3 (Dinner provided).
Join our conversation and community building around Native Science, Arts, Culture and Mathematics Education in NM. We will explore questions including: What does it mean to be in STEM? How can it be inclusive? What does this mean for community building around our overlapping roles such as students, educators, professionals, parents, community members? We are hoping this conversation will lead to networking and collective goal setting to reimagine the future of science in Native Communities.
