The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $167,321 Project Grant to the University of Hawaii (UH) for the "The Contributions of Community Engagement, Faculty Networks, and STEM Student Collaboration to Noninvasively Identifying and Documenting Unmarked Burial Sites" project. This 2-year grant, from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2025, supports a collaborative effort to identify and document unmarked burial sites, commemorate those buried, and preserve the local and historical knowledge of the community. The project engages community members, students, and anthropologists trained in cultural and forensic anthropology, as well as historical archaeology, to noninvasively locate and document unmarked burials. This project, which aligns with NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), aims to develop a novel multi-method approach with significant relevance for similar unmarked burial site projects.
