The New Partnerships Initiative helps the Agency partner with new, nontraditional, and localpartners to advance their development goals by elevating local leadership, fostering equity1 andaccountability, and mobilizing resources across the Agency’s programs.Six principles guide our perspective on the partnerships that we wish to support:● Promote local leadership. NPI works with local actors and traditional partners tostrengthen local and national systems in ways that advance locally led development.● Improve equity and inclusivity within partner relationships. NPI proactively seeksopportunities to engage more equitably and increase inclusion in operations andprogramming, particularly for those communities that traditionally have beenoverlooked by USAID and other donor agencies—including faith-based organizations,minority-serving institutions, and diaspora communities.● Demonstrate accountability to constituents. Recognizing that USAID’s work is “from theAmerican people” to the people of the world, NPI emphasizes the need to be equallyaccountable to the people in the communities in which we work as well as to theAmerican taxpayer.● Seek innovative approaches. NPI capitalizes on the full marketplace of ideas andsolutions by collaborating with partners from all sectors of society, while developingpartnerships that foster mutual accountability and develop local capacity.● Lower barriers to partnerships. NPI identifies processes, norms, and regulations thatprohibit potential partnerships and finds ways to mitigate them while maintainingappropriate safeguards on taxpayer resources.● Identify new and nontraditional sources of funding. NPI fosters partnerships thatleverage non-U.S. government funding sources to enhance local ownership and supporteffective collaboration across the spectrum of humanitarian and development funders.

The NAWCA Canada program promotes partnerships between public agencies and groups interested in: a) protecting, improving, restoring, and managing an appropriate distribution and diversity of wetland ecosystems and other habitats for wetlands-associated migratory birds and other fish and wildlife in North America; b) maintaining and improving the current distributions of wetlands-associated migratory bird populations; and c) maintaining an abundance of waterfowl (ducks, geese, and swans) and other populations of wetlands-associated migratory birds consistent with the objectives of the North American Waterfowl Management Plan, U.S. Shorebird Conservation Plan, Waterbird Conservation Plan for the Americas, Partners in Flight Bird Conservation Plan, and other international obligations contained in the treaties and migratory bird conventions and other agreements with Canada, Mexico, and other countries. Proposals to the NAWCA Canada program should demonstrate how the activities of partners would encourage sustainable and effective programs for the long-term conservation of wetlands-associated migratory birds. NAWCA funds wetlands conservation projects that include: a) the acquisition of property containing wetlands ecosystems and associated habitats, including water rights, where the acquired land will be administered for its long-term conservation and for the benefit of migratory birds, fish, and other wildlife that depend on it; and/or b) restoration, enhancement, or management of wetlands ecosystems and associated habitats, where these activities will be conducted on lands and waters that will be administered for their long-term conservation and for the benefit of migratory birds, fish, and other wildlife that depend on them. NAWCA Canada proposals contribute to efforts to reduce climate pollution, support climate resilience, support land conservation and biodiversity efforts and leverage partnerships.

Willamette Systems Alternatives Analysis and Simulation Tool Development and Application to Inform Implementation and Adaptive Management Plans
Agency: Engineer Research and Development Center
Posted: 2024-04-15 | Closing date: 2024-06-05
Estimated total program funding: 1125000
Award ceiling: 175000

This proposed agreement proposes three key aspects to support timely implementation of the WS EIS and AM Plan: 1. Development of simulation tools that are then transferred to managing agencies for ongoing implementation, 2. Demonstrated application of simulations to inform management direction under uncertainty 3. Incorporation of the best available data as it comes available to update the simulation modeling, leading to a more informed management decision. This will require a combination of salmon life cycle modeling, refinement and application of downstream passage modeling using the Fish Benefit Workbook developed by the Corps, and ongoing monitoring and analysis to inform these models. The proposed work includes completing analysis of effects of the preferred alternative on Upper Willamette River Spring Chinook and winter steelhead, supporting completion of the final EIS. Work proposed also includes description of an adaptive management framework wherein objectives, performance, uncertainty, risk, and value of information are explicitly quantified. This allows resource managers to 1) update testable hypotheses efficiently, 2) make use of limited data or disparate data types, 3) reduce analytical timelines, and 4) when presented with logistic or funding obstacles, can identify which monitoring data should be prioritized and collected thus remaining efficient with taxpayer dollars. The proposed work further includes refining the Corps Fish Benefit Workbook (FBW), recently converted to R, to address structural limitations identified in previous scientific reviews, and completion of FBW models delivered for future application by USACE and other parties. Similarly, proposed work includes development and delivery of lifecycle models for future application by USACE and other parties, with capabilities similar to those applied in the 2022 WS EIS. Analysis will occur once Biological Opinions from NMFS and USFWS are received and associated recommended changes (expected in summer 2024). Analysis during summer 2024 will be supported by contracts which expire in September 2024, however analysis will continue into fall 2024 and potentially winter 2025. Once final and a record of decision is signed, implementation and adaptive management begins during the remainder of 2025 and future years.

Eligibility: This opportunity is restricted to non-federal partners of the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (CESU).

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit grant applications from neutral, independent institutions and/or organizations to support meetings (e.g., conferences, workgroups, roundtables) that convene a broad range of multiple stakeholders, including those with relevant expertise, to explore, research, and address issues related to medical products, policy, and surveillance methods and systems. Support includes, but is not limited to the design, planning, execution, synthesis, summary, and communication of findings from these forums to a broad range of organizations and individuals.

Eligibility: The following types of Higher Education Institutions are always encouraged to apply for FDA support as Public or Private Institutions of Higher Education:  Hispanic-serving Institutions  Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)  Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs)  Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions  Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs)    Other:  Faith-based or Community-based Organizations  Regional Organizations
Using Neuromodulation to Characterize the Continuum of Pathophysiology Between Substance Use and Mental Health Disorders (R01 Clinical Trial Required)
Agency: National Institutes of Health
Posted: 2024-04-15 | Closing date: 2024-08-15
Cost sharing or matching requirement: No

This NOFO seeks applications from the SUD and MHD research communities that coordinate efforts to characterize the effects of neuromodulation on brain circuits and behaviors relevant to both SUD and MHD. To accomplish this goal, studies would specify inclusion/exclusion criteria to capture variance in both SUD and MHD symptoms. Further, studies would include measures of engagement of circuit-level targets in response to neuromodulation and dimensional measures of cognition and behavior relevant to both SUD and MHD. This research approach uses circuit dynamics to understand neurobehavioral function and to develop ecologically valid and descriptive models of the shared and discrete dysfunction across these conditions.

Eligibility: Other Eligible Applicants include the following:  Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions; Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs); Eligible Agencies of the Federal Government; Faith-based or Community-based Organizations; Hispanic-serving Institutions; Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs); Indian/Native American Tribal Governments (Other than Federally Recognized); Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations); Regional Organizations; Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs) ; U.S. Territory or Possession.

The purpose of this research is to continue a long-term dataset used to monitor changes in vegetation along established transects in the prairie-slough gradient across Shark River Slough and into the edges of the marl prairie on the eastern and/or western sides of the slough. Additionally, there is potential work related to using monitoring data to develop tools to measure ecological performance in response to CERP implementation. Budget and scope to be developed separate from anticipated work described above. The project objectives include: Objective 1: To characterize the composition, structure and abundance of prairie and slough vegetation communities and determine the changes in composition and extent of plant communities along marl prairie/slough gradients, Objective 2: To identify the boundary between different vegetation assemblages, characterize the bio-physical attributes of transition zone, and detect the spatio-temporal shift in the position of the boundaries, and Objective 3: To relate changes in vegetation structure and composition, particularly in the transition zone, to hydrologic changes resulting from CERP restoration activities, or climatic variation. 

Eligibility: This opportunity is restricted to non-federal partners of the South Florida - Caribbean Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (CESU).    Disclosures of current and pending support made in this application may render an applicant ineligible for funding. Prior to award and throughout the period of performance, ERDC may continue to request updated continuing and pending support information, which will be reviewed and may result in discontinuation of funding.     Religious organizations are entitled to compete on equal footing with secular organizations for Federal financial assistance as described in E.O. 13798, “Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty.”
