-- The archive is designed to support teaching -- in university and K-12 classroom, and in the community (though workshops, etc), drawing students in as researchers and archive content creators. 

-- The archive should also support, preserve and share the toxic tours run by MPNA-GREEN. We need to build exhibits/installations like this virtual toxic tour of Louisiana’s Cancer Alley.  Note this this stop/page of the tour, where we are experimenting with a layout that would allow a stop to be visited on differently themed tours (here, one on historical legacies – the sugar plantation tour – and another focused on combo disaster).  We don’t yet have a layout that works well/intuitively.

-- The archive should support and preserve documentation of events like our on-going Reaching for Just Transition seminar series (designed to provide fa orum for discussing visions and plans for just transition away from fossil fuels, etc).

I think at this stage, our research events/activities are mostly finished. I could imagine the archive connecting to energy transition events and practices happening in Philadelphia, as well as PECE community events. But I'm not sure how much energy (and funding) we have for much beyond that.
