FY2019 Winter Catalyst proposals are under review
Catalyst Grants are offered in the fall and winter for short-term, small-scale projects that either support collaborative sustainability research planning and partnership development, or enhance the real-world application of sustainability research.
These grants are intended to help better define an issue or decision maker needs, gather resources, develop partnerships, and determine next steps for larger projects that connect research to action. They can also be used to extend and apply existing research by developing outputs that support decision-making or action.
