Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00508
The grant opportunity titled "Ethnographic Overview and Assessment for CAGR" (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00508) is a National Park Service project under the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on documenting and evaluating ethnographic information and resources associated with CAGR. It is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement within the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.945). The opportunity was created on July 18, 2017, with an original application closing date of July 27, 2017. The program anticipated making a single award, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $147,385.
The core purpose of the project is to produce an ethnographic overview and assessment, which is a structured effort to gather existing knowledge, identify what resources are known, and translate that information into practical guidance for park management. The work is framed around four main deliverables. First, the recipient is expected to develop a summary of ethnographic research relating to CAGR, pulling together prior studies, published and unpublished sources, and other relevant documentation to establish what is already known. Second, the project requires an inventory of known ethnographic resources within CAGR, meaning a consolidated accounting of ethnographic resources that have been identified to date, such as culturally significant places, traditional use areas, ethnographic landscapes, and other community- or group-associated resources that may fall within the park unit's scope. Third, the project calls for recommendations on how those ethnographic resources should be managed and interpreted in CAGR, which typically involves advising on stewardship approaches, sensitivities, consultation considerations, and ways to communicate significance to the public while respecting associated communities. Fourth, the project must offer suggestions for future ethnographic research within CAGR, essentially outlining remaining information gaps and proposing a path forward for additional studies or engagement that would strengthen the park's understanding and management of ethnographic resources.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating that the National Park Service intended to partner with a university or similar public academic institution that can bring research capacity and subject-matter expertise to the effort. Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the project is set up for substantial involvement by the National Park Service during performance, often meaning coordination on research design, access to park data, alignment with NPS policies and standards, and iterative review of products so the final assessment is usable for management and interpretation purposes.
In practical terms, the opportunity funds a synthesis-and-planning effort rather than fieldwork alone. The expected result is a consolidated baseline of ethnographic knowledge for CAGR: a clear summary of existing research, a usable inventory of known ethnographic resources, and actionable recommendations that help the park make informed decisions about protecting, managing, and presenting ethnographic resources, alongside a forward-looking research agenda to guide future ethnographic work.Apply for P17AS00508
