I'm very proud to have received this grant, but also proud to have such an amazing support net here at UoLeeds. This grant will allow me to continue the work I'm doing with Kiet in the Mekong, and generate new collaborations at UEH and @efdinitiative.bsky.social Vietnam.
Irene Mussio (@irenemussio.bsky.social), from #CDRLeeds, has been awarded a small research grant from The #BritishAcademy for her project "Collaborative Solutions to Water Shortages in the Mekong River Delta", in partnership with Dr. Kiet Nguyen from University of Economics at Ho Chi Minh City.
