This grant is for research focused on developing sustainable solutions to environmental challenges affecting tribal communities, specifically through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program. The primary objectives are to enhance understanding of the health impacts of climate change on tribal populations and the health impacts of indoor air pollution exposures connected to traditional tribal life-ways and cultural practices. Projects funded by this solicitation must prioritize vulnerable sub-populations within Tribal communities and integrate sustainable, culturally appropriate pollution prevention, as well as adaptation and mitigation strategies. This initiative aims to foster robust scientific inquiry to support the well-being and resilience of tribes.

| Description: | The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as part of its Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program, is seeking applications proposing research on science for sustainable and healthy tribes. This solicitation is focused on research to develop sustainable solutions to environmental problems that affect tribes. The objectives of the awards to be made under this solicitation are to improve understanding of: 1) the health impacts of climate change on tribal populations; and 2) the health impacts of indoor air pollution exposures that derive from or are directly affecting traditional tribal life-ways and cultural practices. In both cases, projects should focus on impacts to vulnerable sub-populations of the Tribal communities. Proposals should also consider sustainable, culturally appropriate and acceptable pollution prevention, and adaptation/mitigation strategies. |
