*New* NSF Funding Opportunity: Confronting Hazards, Impacts and Risks for a Resilient Planet (CHIRRP) (Proposal due 6/9/24)
Posted: 4/1/2024 ()
Natural hazards compounded by changing climates, rising populations, expanding demands for resources, and increasing reliance on technology are putting our economy, well-being, and national security at risk. The goal of Confronting Hazards, Impacts and Risks for a Resilient Planet (CHIRRP) (PD 24-297Y) is to help safeguard communities and ecosystems for a resilient planet by supporting the co-design of projects that deliver evidence-based, actionable solution pathways reducing the risk from earth system hazards compounded by global environmental change.
Researchers, academics, and community leaders will work together on NSF-supported projects to advance understanding, forecasting and/or prediction of future Earth system hazards and risks, develop community-driven research questions, and inform actionable, science-based solutions that increase community resilience now and in the future.
CHIRRP projects will demonstrate convergence of three essential elements:
- Equitable community partnerships
- An Earth-system science approach to advance knowledge of hazards, impacts and risks
- Pathways to actionable solutions to increase environmental and societal resilience
