- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $299,768 Project Grant under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076) to the University of Northern Colorado. The grant, awarded on October 15, 2023, aims to develop a new survey instrument called the "Acceptance of Climate Change Scale (ACC)" to measure undergraduate science students' acceptance of climate change. The project has three primary goals: 1) define acceptance of climate change for...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), supports a conference that aims to address the persistent lack of integration of local ecological knowledge with Western STEM education. The $100,000 award, effective from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2024, will enable WestEd, a non-profit education research and service agency, to convene a group of Indigenous academic, community, and education leaders. Over three phases, the...
- This $2.358 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the development of youth environmental health literacy and climate resilience programming. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will build the capacity of community organizations to implement informal STEM learning activities for racially and ethnically diverse youth focused on collecting and analyzing local climate data, developing resilience solutions, and...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), awarded a $129,436 Project Grant to the University of Illinois to convene an international summit in Fall 2024 to discuss the feasibility of creating a special-purpose computational system for frontier Earth system science and climate projection.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $249,966 Project Grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the Space Science Institute, a nonprofit organization based in Boulder, Colorado. The grant will support a national conference that explores the role of public libraries in addressing local climate impacts. The conference will convene 30 library leaders, climate experts, public health professionals, and STEM educators to examine climate-related programming in libraries and how they can create locally relevant, equitable STEM learning experiences to increase community resilience. Key deliverables include the national conference, background reports, webinars for library staff, a project website, and presentations at regional and national meetings. The conference aims to identify a research agenda at the intersection of public libraries, climate change, and community engagement.
