B-WET provides competitive funding to support Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences for K-12 audiences.
The NOAA B-WET program funds locally relevant, authentic experiential learning for K-12 students and educators through Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs)<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.noaa.gov/explainers/noaa-meaningful-watershed-educational-experience__;!!KKphUJtCzQ!azrlVOJ81a3TrN7O3eegHi9sN70VoIIBV6QK3CWAivQFexgxs1ndvGpLEojfh3-3XbiT_yqP$ [noaa[.]gov]>. MWEEs are multistage activities that include learning both outdoors and in the classroom and aim to increase understanding and stewardship of watersheds and related ecosystems. Whether working with students directly or providing professional development to educators, B-WET grants empower students to investigate local and global environmental issues that affect their lives, choices, and communities. Students identify actions to address these issues, enabling them to help to understand, protect, and restore watersheds and related ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes ecosystems.
