Webinar: BIA Tribal Resilience Program Funding Solicitation

January 9, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

This webinar is an installment in the Topics in Climate Change Adaptation Planning webinar series. Recordings are available at: http://nau.edu/tribalclimatechange under the Trainings and Events tab. 

The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) has announced the availability of funding through the Tribal Resilience Program (https://www.bia.gov/sites/bia.gov/files/assets/bia/ots/tcrp/FY20TRPAwards_RFP.pdf).  Proposals are due March 2, 2020. The Tribal Resilience Program supports tribes preparing for extreme events and harmful environmental trends that impact tribal treaty and trust resources, economies, infrastructure, and human health and safety. The Program will provide funding for projects that support tribal resilience and ocean and coastal management planning as tribes incorporate science (including Traditional Knowledge) and technical information to prepare for the impacts of extreme events and harmful environmental trends.
