Informal Science Education – Supplements to Active Research Awards

Description

The Informal Science Education Program (ISE) funds projects that provide rich and stimulating contexts and experiences for individuals of all ages, interests, and backgrounds to increase their appreciation for and understanding of science. The Informal Science Education Program of NSF will consider requests for up to $50,000 to supplement current research awards from any NSF directorate to assist in the broader dissemination of research results and to promote science literacy for the general public in an out-of-school setting. The supplement can be used for any activity that falls within the definition of an informal science education activity such as media presentations, exhibits, or youth-based activities.
