Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS00364
The National Park Service (NPS) has announced its intent to award funding for a project focused on designing and assessing communication efforts related to natural sounds, night skies, and biological topics. This initiative is being awarded to Colorado State University (CSU) for a total of $186,559, with no cost-sharing requirement, and will run until December 31, 2017.
The project's main goal is to enhance public outreach and education by creating communication products that raise awareness and understanding of natural sound and night sky resources. It aims to simplify technical information for easier public access through various channels, including web and social media. Additionally, the project will involve student engagement, offering them hands-on experiences related to soundscapes.
The project will also evaluate the effectiveness of communication strategies previously developed by the NPS's Natural Sounds and Night Skies Division (NSNSD). CSU will work closely with NPS to prioritize and implement communication tactics, produce materials, and recommend improvements for a sustainable communication program. NPS will collaborate by providing guidance and reviewing products to ensure alignment with their mission.
The funding opportunity does not call for competition, citing that this project is a continuation of existing activities and is necessary for the project's completion. The partnership between CSU and NPS is intended to foster effective communication concerning these vital resources.Apply for P15AS00364
