Chugachmiut has the following announcements for opportunities for our Education Innovation & Research Early Phase Grant FY24.

Chugachmiut requests considerations from qualified researchers or research firms (henceforth referred to as the “researcher”) to serve as Principal Investigators in a five-year grant application to the federal Department of Education for the FY24 Education Innovation and Research Grant (Assistance Listing Number: 84.411C Early Phase Grants). Chugachmiut is preparing an application for a five-year development of a transformative education partnership between the Chugachmiut Tribal Education Department and three remote/rural Alaska Native tribes and public high schools. (This partnership project will be henceforth referred to as the “Intervention”). Within the budget of $1 million over 5 years, we invite researchers to submit a proposal outlining the qualifications of serving as the Principal Investigator of this Intervention.

Chugachmiut requests proposals from qualified individuals or firms (henceforth referred to as the “consultant”) to partner in a five-year grant application to the federal Department of Education for the FY24 Education Innovation and Research Grant (Assistance Listing Number: 84.411C Early Phase Grants). Chugachmiut is preparing an application for a five-year grant project that will incorporate a place-based teaching model incorporating Indigenous artists into the school curricula of three remote/rural high schools (henceforth referred to as the “Intervention”). The Intervention is expected to improve the social-emotional learning factors related to identity, belonging, and placehood—ultimately impacting comprehensive school success. The consultant will oversee and direct the implementation and alignment of the grant project into the three partner schools. We invite consultants to submit a proposal for consideration by 5 PM AKT Thursday, July 12, 2024. The expected contract amount is $1 million over five years, but proposals may be considered above this amount if added costs are necessary. If proposing a larger budget, please contact Chugachmiut staff before submitting a proposal.

Chugachmiut requests quotes from grant writers to develop and write a preliminary grant proposal for the National Science Foundation (NSF) Regional Innovation Engines program (Opportunity Number 24-565). Chugachmiut will accept and review quotes from grant writers with significant previous experience developing competitive proposals for renewable energy projects and give priority preference to responses that indicate prior experience working in rural Alaska, prior work with Alaska Native/ American Indian tribes and tribal organizations, and significant professional experience and education credentials regarding marine energy and saltwater desalination systems.

The preliminary proposal is to develop a regional innovation engine in Southcentral Alaska to research, implement, and promote marine energy generation and saltwater desalination. To accomplish this goal, Chugachmiut will conduct a marine energy feasibility study and environmental assessment and develop a comprehensive strategic plan to support the implementation of the regional innovation engine.

We invite individuals to submit proposals for consideration by 5 p.m. AKST on Friday, June 28, 2024.
