San Diego-Tijuana and U.S.-Mexico Border Links:
Border EcoWeb
http://www.borderecoweb.sdsu.edu
This ambitious webpage is being developed by the Institute for
Regional Studies, SDSU (in collaboration with the EPA and other
partners). Its purpose is to facilitate public access to environmental
information for the U.S.-Mexican border region. As it develops,
the site's INVENTORY will consist of environmental information,
metadata (data about data), databases (data, data sets), projects,
program activities, grants information, and other useful border-related
information. The site's DIRECTORY contains contact information and
project descriptions for government agencies and other groups involved
in activities dealing with the border environment. The site can
be searched for information by geographical location, media, or
other key words.
BorderBase
http://www.borderbase.org/
BorderBase is a bilingual directory of organizations, agencies
and institutions that conduct work along the California-Baja California
border. The BorderBase project seeks to promote cross border collaboration
and understanding by providing a simple networking and information
tool for local border communities. The BorderBase directory provides
contact information, project descriptions and links to government
agencies, non-profit organizations, academic institutions, and other
groups that are involved in activities related to the California-Baja
California border region. Keep in mind that the BorderBase is a
dynamic database and is not yet complete. We urge organizations
involved in border-related activities to add their information to
make this an efficient and complete information tool for the community.
We also hope that you will encourage others to visit this site and
add their organization's information.
Southwest Center
for Environmental Research and Policy (SCERP)
SCERP is a consortium of five U.S. and five Mexican universities
which serves U.S.-Mexican border residents by applying research
information, insights, and innovations to environmental challenges
in the region. SCERP was created in 1989 to initiate a comprehensive
analysis of possible solutions to acute air, water, and hazardous
waste problems that plague the United States-Mexican border region.
