The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), via its Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program, is offering this grant to fund research on quantifying the improvements in climate and ambient and indoor air quality, and the subsequent impacts on health and welfare. This grant is for projects that investigate ongoing, planned, or potential interventions in cooking, heating, or lighting practices within residential settings. The research should utilize field measurements and modeling, focusing on communities in the developing world, Indian tribes, and Alaska Native groups. Projects involving human subjects are acceptable but require a specific Human Subjects Research Statement and will undergo additional review.
