Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS00214

The National Park Service (NPS) has announced plans to award a grant for a project titled "Collaborative Biological Research and Education" to the California Academy of Sciences. The total funding anticipated for this project is $140,000, with no cost share required. This cooperative agreement aims to foster scientific research and education centered on the natural resources found in NPS lands and enhance ecological inventory efforts.

The agreement will support collaborative activities that focus on species distribution, the impacts of climate change, and developing technical solutions for data management challenges. The California Academy of Sciences brings unique qualifications to this partnership, especially through its existing platform, iNaturalist, which enables global data sharing and biodiversity research.

The project is structured to last five years, beginning on the date of the award. Responsibilities will be shared between the NPS and the Academy, with the former providing necessary resources and expertise, and the latter managing research initiatives and educational programs, including training students and volunteers.

This grant falls under a single-source justification due to the Academy's unique qualifications in biodiversity research, established community engagement, and significant experience managing the iNaturalist platform. The project's collaborative nature aims to contribute positively to conservation and public education regarding the United States' natural resources.
