RCLs will also have other opportunities to participate in ongoing research and community engagement activities being conducted at CERENE. This includes the Action 15 Community Resilience Research which builds on the work of the Ola Oahu Community Resilience Strategy developed by the City of Honolulu in collaboration with over 117 community organizations and 33 neighborhood board groups.  CERENE is also working on supporting student research regarding community perceptions of resilience, Oʻahu food security and food sovereignty as well as microgrid-energy generation development.
