Call for Letter of Intent (US): National Science Foundation Climate Change Education (CCE): Due January 24

National Science Foundation Climate Change Education (CCE): Climate Change Education Partnership (CCEP) Program, Phase II                   

Letter of Intent - 1/24/12; Application - 3/21/12, 5:00 pm local time                  
 
The Climate Change Education Partnership (CCEP) program seeks to establish a coordinated national network of regionally- or thematically-based partnerships devoted to increasing the adoption of effective, high quality educational programs and resources related to the science of climate change and its impacts. Each CCEP is required to be of a large enough scale that it will have catalytic or transformative impact that cannot be achieved through other core NSF program awards. The CCEP program is one facet of a larger NSF collection of awards related to Climate Change Education (CCE) that has two goals: (1) preparing a new generation of climate scientists, engineers, and technicians equipped to provide innovative and creative approaches to understanding global climate change and to mitigate its impact; and, (2) preparing today's U.S. citizens to understand global climate change and its implications in ways that can lead to informed, evidence-based responses and solutions.   

Total budget $38,000,000 US.
