Artisanal fishery is a cultural and economic activity for coastal communities in Abandze, east of Cape Coast, Ghana. But standard of living is fast depreciating as fishing revenues have declined over the past years due to sea pollution, climate change and heavy competition for sea resources. Based at the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, the Africa Center of Excellence on Coastal Resilience (ACECoR) is training the next generation of scientists and researchers to educate communities, impact policies, and help countries manage their coastal and marine resources to spur economic growth and reduce poverty while adapting to climate change.

Ryan Camero, from Stockton, CA, began volunteering with Restore the Delta in 2010 to understand community resilience amidst social challenges and water issues. His interest in art and storytelling led him to the Beehive Collective. Collaborating with Restore the Delta and Food and Water Watch, Camero conceptualized "Sucked Dry" in 2014, a presentation with Beehive Collective graphics that linked California's water privatization to struggles against large-scale infrastructure projects in Mesoamerica.

Last fall, Camero toured 18 California cities, presenting "Sucked Dry" and facilitating discussions on the fragile Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Now employed by Restore the Delta, he continues to act as a "cross-pollinator," fostering collaborations across organizations to address interconnected social, environmental, and economic inequities.
