• At the Intersection of Science and Faith: Institute for Water and Health and 12 community leaders unite to protect Brunswick's waterways (griceconnect.com) — Brunswick residents are teaming up with Georgia Southern’s Institute for Water and Health to test and protect local waterways, creating a community-run water lab and citizen science network. Their “Safe Water Together for Brunswick” project just won a major national public‑private partnership award, and its data now feeds directly into Georgia’s official water monitoring efforts while changing how locals fish and use nearby waters.
