The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $433,641 Project Grant to the University of Central Florida Board of Trustees (UCF) to "Enable the Next Generation of Hazards and Disasters Researchers". The objective of this 2-year award, starting August 1, 2025, is to support the development of a new cohort of scholars across various disciplines in the field of hazards, disasters, and risk. Specifically, the project aims to: (1) identify and recruit early career fellows and experienced academic mentors; (2) develop a comprehensive mentoring and training program; and (3) ensure the legacy and continuity of the "Enabling Program" for future generations of scholars. The project will leverage a "Communities of Practice" mentoring model to enhance the research, teaching, and expertise of early career fellows, including postdoctoral scholars and non-tenure-track researchers from the physical sciences, engineering, and social sciences. The results of the project will be disseminated through journal publications and conference presentations.
