EPA is seeking applications for community-engaged research to advance the use and communication of air pollution data to address air pollution concerns. This research will provide underserved communities with science-based information, tools, and approaches and related environmental data to engage with decision-makers and address community-identified air pollution concerns. Specifically, this funding opportunity is soliciting research projects that involve substantial engagement with communities, community-based organizations, and/or Tribes to address the following priorities:
- Methods and tools for data integration and analysis to characterize community exposures to air pollution in underserved communities
- Effective communication of air quality information to communities and decision-makers to support actions to address air pollution concerns in underserved communities
EPA anticipates awarding a total of $10 million under this funding opportunity divided among approximately 8 awards.
If you are interested in serving on the external scientific Peer Review Panel, rather than applying, email your contact information and a copy of your resume to Mirtha Cápiro at capiro.mirtha@epa.gov.
EPA will host an informational webinar on this funding opportunity on April 22 at 10:00 Alaska, 11:00 Pacific, 12:00 Mountain.
