The U.S. Department of State, through its Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs, awarded a $100,000 Project Grant to the Council On Strategic Risks to develop a project that showcases a youth-led vision for a climate-secure Pacific. The grant supports a three-day workshop in Wellington, New Zealand, to be completed by September 29, 2024. This grant is funded under the Public Diplomacy Programs (CFDA 19.040), which aims to inform and influence foreign publics and strengthen relationships...

This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), supports a collaborative design process to develop public art experiences focused on climate literacy and climate justice. The $1,994,610 award to Pratt Institute will engage Black, Indigenous, and other youth of color in co-designing these informal STEM learning experiences, which will be integrated into festivals and public programs on Governor's Island in New York City, reaching...

This $250,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) will establish the groundwork for developing a Global Center to provide real-time water quality forecasts and decision support tools for lakes and reservoirs in the U.S. and Australia facing climate change impacts. The key products to be delivered under this 2-year award include: 1) an American-Australian community of water researchers, managers, industry, and...

This $1,223,730 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund the development of a collaboration model and toolkit to enable planetariums across the United States to co-create local, data-driven climate change impact narratives with their communities. The goal is to leverage planetariums as informal learning environments to educate the public on climate change in a way that resonates with local contexts and marginalized populations...

This $250,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) supports the development of a Global Center on Climate Change and Clean Energy with Southeast Asia as a living lab. The project, led by the University of Illinois, assembles a team of U.S. and Southeast Asian researchers to assess climate risks, evaluate impacts, and design adaptation and mitigation strategies to build resilience for vulnerable coastal...

This $204,278 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Polar Programs (CFDA 47.078) will support research by the University of Chicago to investigate how Arctic sea ice attenuation affects ocean swell, microseisms, and the potential to use seismology as a method for observing sea ice conditions. The key activities include: Analyzing seismic data from stations along the northern coasts of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland to detect seasonal and annual changes in microseisms as a...

This five-year, $622,775 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) supports research by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research's National Center for Atmospheric Research to generate actionable climate intervention scenarios. The research team will advance the scientific understanding of portfolio approaches combining mitigation, carbon dioxide removal, and solar radiation management strategies to limit global warming to 1.5...

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) Cooperative Agreement award of $267,728 to the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) will support a project titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: RII FEC: EQUITABLE NATURE-BASED CLIMATE SOLUTIONS". The project aims to engage stakeholders in research and workforce development on the equitable design and implementation of nature-based solutions (NBS) for climate resilience. The research will be conducted across three...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) provides $717,769 to the University of New Mexico (UNM) to enhance climate change resilience in Indigenous communities in New Mexico and Oklahoma. The project will establish partnerships between UNM, tribal organizations, and the South Central Climate Adaptation Science Center to braid Western and Indigenous climate science approaches. Key activities include: Identifying...
