About this grant
The Mayors Innovation Project, centered at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is a nationwide learning network of engaged mayors and city officials. The team convenes officials in high-quality learning events to address contemporary topics, including drinking water and infrastructure. With previous support from the Mott Foundation, the grantee has provided technical support to Great Lakes cities on water infrastructure, water affordability and sustainability challenges. Renewed support will enable the University of Wisconsin-Madison to support a network of Great Lakes cities that are prioritizing water affordability and create pathways to help them achieve water infrastructure upgrades.
