NEMS Network - Communications and Outreach | UNH Sustainability Institute / NEMSN

Erin Puglia worked alongside Dr. Dovev Levine, Jennifer Andrews, and Dr. Cameron Wake to conduct an assessment of progress made by the New England Municipal Sustainability (NEMS) Network, and the impact of their work. She conducted interviews with all of the Network's member municipalities to update their individual sustainability profiles and identify common themes and barriers. A main focus of the project was measuring progress toward the Network's shared goal of compliance with the Global Covenant of Mayors framework. Erin also created outreach materials to increase the visibility of the Network and document its accomplishments and impact. Erin completed her Fellowship while finishing a Master's in Public Policy at UNH with a concentration in Strategy and Communication. She is looking forward to pursuing a career in sustainability, public affairs, equity, and their intersections.
