NSF Call for Proposals: Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences Program. The NSF’s Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences Program reissued its call for proposals. The call invites senior research proposals, early career development proposals, research coordination network proposals, conference and research community development activities, research experiences for undergraduates and graduates, and transdisciplinary research in environmental social science. The objective of the Human-Environment and Geographical Sciences program is to support basic scientific research about the nature, causes, consequences, or evolution of the spatial dimensions of human behaviors, activities, and dynamics as well as their interactions with environmental and social processes across a range of scales. Contemporary geographical research encompasses diverse research traditions and methodologies. Recognizing the breadth of the field’s contributions to science, the HEGS program welcomes proposals for empirically grounded, theoretically engaged, methodologically rigorous, and generalizable research that advances geographical and geospatial sciences. Learn more about the program. Proposal Target Date 2/3/25.
