[ECOLOG-L] Second Century Stewardship RFP

2017-09-07 Thread CJ Langley
Hi All,

A request for proposals was recently announced for the Second Century 
Stewardship 2018 Research Fellowships. The Second Century Stewardship 
initiative is a partnership among National Park Service, American 
Association for the Advancement of Science, and Schoodic Institute.

Proposals are due October 23. There will be an informational webinar on 
September 13 at 1pm eastern. https://www.aaas.org/page/apply-1

The goal of the fellowships is to support early-career researchers 
(assistant professors, postdocs, grad students, researchers at NGOs, 
etc.) to do research and communication that help NPS and other 
organizations adapt and respond to changing human-natural systems. The 
research must be relevant to Acadia National Park, but can include other 
areas too.

We encourage proposals from researchers in a wide range of disciplines, 
including natural and social sciences, and proposals that cross 
disciplines.

Each proposal may request up to a total of $20,000 for research over 1-2 
years. The Second Century Stewardship partners will also provide 
mentorship, communication training and support, and other types of 
support for each fellow.

Please forward this announcement to others you think might be 
interested.

Sincerely,

The Second Century Stewardship Team
