This Episode captures the last 2 weeks (Week 5 and 6) of my practicum and what I have been working on. I had a zoom call with the bog committee, where we discussed the importance of tracking water and investing in water monitors to better asses the current environment dynamic.  I found myself thinking how I can bring this back to social justice and in what way is my project contributing to the life of the community. I discuss how I've been struggling to understand what the final product will look like and the lack of structure within my actual delivery expectation. I found these weeks challenging but insightful to the reality of solving real world issues. Thank you for listening!
