RESEARCH GRANTS
Educators in the US may apply for grants of up $1,500.00 for equipment and logistical support to enable student environmental research. Students are expected to produce research projects and share data through publicly available (or non-proprietary) platforms. Grantees must commit to coaching students in conducting research projects and sharing their observations and reports.
LOCAL STUDENT RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM
US environmental educators and organizations may apply for grants of up to $5,000 for local student research symposia (SRS). The local SRS supported by YLACES is to be based on the GLOBE Regional SRS model (https://www.globe.gov/web/united-states-of-america/home/student-research-symposia) but instead should be one-day events with student participants drawn from a school, school district(s), a locale, or a small region.
INTERNATIONAL GRANTS
International environmental educators or organizations may submit grant proposals for equipment up to $1500.00 to facilitate youth environmental research and data collection with the endorsement from the GLOBE Program in their country.
