The HWISE Collaborative Accelerator Award grants $1-2K for small teams of researchers (2-3 members) to accelerate new theoretical, methodological, analytical, outreach, and educational collaborations related to household water insecurity! The HWISE RCN expects to fund two rounds of Collaborative Accelerator Awards (2021, 2022).
Scholars, educators, and practitioners from all career stages are eligible, though preference will be given to teams containing at least one early career researcher. At least one applicant must be an affiliate of the HWISE RCN. Applicants may only appear on one CAA proposal per cycle.
The CAA will support dyads or triads of researchers with $1,000–2,000 toward travel or other scholarly/creative costs. Because this program is funded by NSF, teams must include at least one US-based researcher, and any in-person meetings must take place in the US.
The deadline for application submissions is September 15.
Application submission instructions can be found here.
