The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Gulf Research Program (GRP), in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s Office of Education, is awarding up to $6 million to enhance the resilience of coastal communities across the U.S. Gulf Coast states (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida) through place-based education. 

 

Please consider sharing this funding opportunity with your network.

The Resilience Education funding opportunity supports projects that educate community members on local environmental challenges, engage learners in solutions-oriented activities, and empower participants to take action in their communities. 

Specifically, the GRP is seeking applications that engage learners in place-based activities that enable participants to contribute to local resilience efforts informed by a local understanding of socio-environmental challenges. Competitive applications should be tailored to community needs and contexts, incorporate scientific informationand best practices in education, enable participants to take action in their community, and encourage future leaders to help address the complex environmental challenges facing the Gulf states now and into the future.

A total of up to $6 million is available for this funding opportunity. Applicants must request between $100,000 and $750,000 for projects, commensurate with the scope of work, that are between 12 and 36 months in duration.
