Call for Mitigation Matters Research Award Proposals
To ensure communities have the strong physical and social infrastructure needed to protect their populations, more mitigation research is needed. For this reason, the Natural Hazards Center, with funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the National Science Foundation (NSF), administers the Mitigation Matters Research Award Program. This program provides funding for researchers focused on natural hazard mitigation and other forms of risk reduction in the United States, U.S. territories, or tribal nations.
Available funds will support 5 to 10 awards in the amount of $5,000 to $10,000 each
Proposals are due by 5:00 p.m. MDT on Friday, March 14, 2025.
Open Call for Support of Science Events and Gatherings - Heising-Simons Foundation
The Heising-Simons Foundation’s Science program solicits proposals for support of meetings, workshops, conferences, summer schools, research collaboration gatherings, and other events related to astronomy, cosmology, fundamental physics, and climate change science, as well as increasing the representation and retention of underrepresented groups within these areas.
We expect to fund up to $800,000 total in grants across two cycles of open calls closing in 2025, with approximately $400,000 being granted each cycle. Each grant will be between $20,000 and $80,000. With this open call, the Science program seeks to further support the scientific fields and communities we fund while also broadening reach in the scientific community. We hope to form new partnerships with scientists, institutions, and communities we have not yet worked with.
Cycle 1 open call closes Jan 31, 2025 at 5 pm ET.
Cycle 2 open call closes Aug 15, 2025 at 5 pm ET.
