Nature and Human Health Utah is now accepting grant proposals for our upcoming pilot grant projects, which focus on the intersection of nature and human well-being, with a strong emphasis on nature equity. We believe that these pilot grants have significant potential to make a positive impact on our community, which is why we are looking for both research-driven grants as well as community-based projects and programmatic initiatives.

To help those interested in learning more about the grant application process and the goals of our pilot projects, we will be hosting an informational session on Tuesday, Nov. 14 from 11-11:30 a.m. and Thursday, Nov. 16 from 12-12:30 p.m. via Zoom. During this session, we will provide insights into the grant proposal requirements and answer any questions that arise. You can register for these sessions by going to our website’s homepage.

Please find the Request for Proposals (RFP) here. It outlines the guidelines, criteria, and eligibility requirements for the grant proposals.

Key dates to keep in mind:

• Informational Session: Nov. 14 and Nov. 16
• Proposal Submission Deadline: Dec. 15, 2023
• Grant Award Announcement: Jan. 31, 2024

If you have any questions or would like further information before the informational session, please do not hesitate to reach out to Myra Gerst at myra.gerst@utah.edu or Dart Schmalz at d.schmalz@health.utah.edu, we are happy to support you throughout the application process and ensure that proposals are as strong as possible.
