Funding
As part of our mission to enhance the sustainable use and conservation of Alaska’s marine, coastal and watershed resources through research, education and extension, Alaska Sea Grant supports a number of formal, peer-reviewed research projects on a two-year cycle.
The next request for preliminary proposals will be released late in 2020, for research to be conducted between February 2022 and January 2024. We seek creative and innovative research proposals in the natural, social, and education sciences that address one or more of the following focus areas:
- Healthy Coastal Ecosystems
- Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture
- Resilient Communities and Economies
- Environmental Literacy and Workforce Development
As an example, you can reference our previous Announcement of Funding Opportunity for 2020–2022.
