This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research on the cultural contexts and developmental outcomes of childhood exploration and interactions with nature. The $142,165 award, effective September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2026, will examine children's independent exploration and time spent in different environments (e.g., green spaces versus playgrounds) across two societies where such...
This Project Grant award, valued at $136,727, is funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The award supports a collaborative research project to understand how geographic contexts shape attitude formation and the quality of interpersonal interactions at different spatial scales, such as on a person's block, in their neighborhood, and across their city or town. The research will test three key questions derived from an...
This $398,374 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a research project examining factors that drive the regeneration of forests in developing regions that have been deforested. The research combines satellite imagery and ethnographic methods to analyze how rural-to-urban land sales and the priorities of urban landowners contribute to tree cover gain. The project will expand geographic...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, provides $804,950 to investigate the effects of climate change on rural livelihoods, including food insecurity, health, migration, and changes to traditional practices. The award to the University of Colorado, Boulder will examine how environmental stressors impact vulnerable rural populations and whether they lead to increased social conflict or...
The University of Vermont received a three-year $152,092 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The grant will fund collaborative research between the University of Vermont and other institutions to investigate adaptive strategies in variable environments from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2024.
