项目摘要

Community Engagement Core (CEC) Summary Community engagement is central to the goals of the Columbia University Northern Plains Superfund Research Program (CUNP-SRP), which seeks to reduce exposure to arsenic (As), uranium (U), and other metals through systems science, traditional knowledge, and technology innovation. Tribal communities, similar to other rural communities, are disproportionately exposed to As and U in groundwater from anthropogenic and geogenic sources. The Community Engagement Core (CEC) of the CUNP-SRP will partner with tribal communities in North and South Dakota affected by toxic elements in drinking water. The main objectives of the CEC are to mitigate exposure to metals in drinking water and prevent related health outcomes through bidirectional and participatory community engagement, advocacy, citizen science, capacity building, and impact evaluation. The CEC builds upon a strong collaboration between Columbia University, Missouri Breaks Industries Research, Inc. (MBIRI), and the Strong Heart Study (SHS). MBIRI is a Native American-owned research firm that has partnered with tribal nations for 25 years and is centrally located in South Dakota. The SHS is a prospective cohort study of cardiometabolic disease and its risk factors in Native American populations, ongoing since 1989. The objectives of the CUNP-SRP CEC will engage all Project scientists and local community members to: (1) integrate the Northern Plains perspective of diverse tribal and rural community members into all CUNP-SRP activities (through a Community Advisory Committee, tribal research symposia, and communication portfolio); (2) provide outreach and education to support evidence-based approaches for improving drinking water quality in the Northern Plains (including enhanced remediation technology developed by Project 5); and (3) prevent metal-related cardiometabolic outcomes through nutritional interventions (informed by Projects 3 and 4). To achieve these aims, we will leverage established partnerships with diverse and multi-tiered stakeholders across tribal communities including tribal and government partners involved in resources and environment, high school students and teachers, tribal officials and elders, and community members. The CEC focuses on a community that is engaged and integrated in all Projects, helping collect water samples and identifying safe drinking water resources (Projects 1, 2, and 3), understanding the health risks (Projects 3 and 4), implementing prevention strategies (Projects 1, 3, and 4), adapting novel remediation strategies (Project 5), and providing hands-on opportunities for SRP trainees and local community members. The CEC will also leverage strong partnerships with other SRP centers that strive to improve public health in Indigenous communities and other rural environments. With a commitment to safeguarding tribal sovereignty and the right of citizens and communities to participate as equal partners in the scientific process, the CEC will play a major role in mitigating groundwater metal exposures and related disease in Northern Plains tribal communities, making drinking water safer and promoting healthy traditional diets that improve nutritional status and can prevent cardiometabolic disease.

社区参与核心 (CEC) 摘要社区参与是哥伦比亚大学北部平原超级基金研究目标的核心计划 (CUNP-SRP)，旨在通过以下方式减少砷 (As)、铀 (U) 和其他金属的暴露系统科学、传统知识和技术创新。部落社区，与其他农村社区类似社区，不成比例地暴露于地下水中来自人为和地质原因的砷和铀来源。 CUNP-SRP 的社区参与核心 (CEC) 将与以下地区的部落社区合作：北达科他州和南达科他州受到饮用水中有毒元素的影响。 CEC 的主要目标是通过双向和参与性社区参与、宣传、公民科学、能力建设和影响评估。这 CEC 建立在密苏里州哥伦比亚大学和 Breaks Industries Research, Inc. 之间的紧密合作之上。（MBIRI）和强心脏研究（SHS）。 MBIRI 是一家美国原住民拥有的研究公司，与与部落国家交往 25 年，位于南达科他州中心。 SHS 是一项前瞻性队列研究自 1989 年以来，美国原住民人群中心脏代谢疾病及其危险因素的研究一直在持续。 CUNP-SRP CEC 的目标将让所有项目科学家和当地社区成员参与：(1) 将不同部落和农村社区成员的北部平原观点纳入所有 CUNP-SRP 活动（通过社区咨询委员会、部落研究研讨会和交流组合）； (2) 提供宣传和教育，支持改善饮用水质量的循证方法北部平原地区（包括项目5开发的强化修复技术）； (3) 防止通过营养干预措施实现与金属相关的心脏代谢结果（由项目 3 和 4 提供信息）。到为了实现这些目标，我们将利用与不同和多层次的利益相关者建立的伙伴关系部落社区，包括涉及资源和环境的部落和政府合作伙伴、高中学生和教师、部落官员和长老以及社区成员。 CEC 专注于社区参与并融入所有项目，帮助收集水样并识别安全饮用水资源（项目 1、2 和 3），了解健康风险（项目 3 和 4），实施预防策略（项目 1、3 和 4），采用新颖的补救策略（项目 5），并提供实践机会为 SRP 学员和当地社区成员提供机会。 CEC 还将利用强大的合作伙伴关系与其他 SRP 中心合作，致力于改善原住民社区和其他农村地区的公共卫生环境。致力于维护部落主权以及公民和社区的权利作为平等伙伴参与科学进程，CEC 将在减少地下水污染方面发挥重要作用北部平原部落社区的金属暴露和相关疾病，使饮用水更安全推广健康的传统饮食，改善营养状况并预防心脏代谢疾病。
