Cleveland- based, TIES – Teaching Institute for Excellence in STEM, is part of Great Lakes ReNew an NSF funded 10-year initiative focused on water-intensive manufacturing industries’ sustainability – the Blue Economy.
“TIES is pleased to join other leading organizations to leverage the Great Lakes for their immense and vast power to drive learning and economic opportunity. While considered shallow as Great Lakes go, Lake Erie runs very deep in terms of opportunity. We are excited to begin this work to extract value from Lake Erie and other Great Lakes while supporting the development of a ‘blue economy.’” – Jan Morrison, Founder & CEO, TIES
The project aims to increase community awareness and access to Cleveland’s Great Lakes resources.
