Opportunity Information: Apply for 20 562
The Civic Innovation Challenge (CIVIC) is a competition aimed at fostering collaboration between communities and researchers in the Smart and Connected Communities sector. The initiative seeks to expedite the transformation of research into actionable community benefits and promote a stronger exchange of ideas between different sectors.
CIVIC focuses on projects that can yield significant impacts within a year after a four-month planning phase. It stands out from similar programs by shifting the traditional community-university relationship. Instead of researchers determining the needs, communities will lead by identifying civic priorities for innovation, collaborating with researchers to address these areas.
The challenge consists of two tracks:
1. **Track A: Communities and Mobility** - Aimed at improving mobility options and addressing housing affordability versus job availability. 2. **Track B: Resilience to Natural Disasters** - Focused on enhancing community preparedness for natural disasters.
The competition is divided into two stages. In Stage 1, up to 12 awards per track, each worth up to $50,000, will be given for planning grants to develop project proposals. Only those who receive Stage 1 funding can apply for Stage 2. In Stage 2, up to four projects per track will receive further funding of up to $1,000,000 for implementation and evaluation.
Throughout both stages, MetroLab Network will support participants by fostering communities of practice for knowledge sharing and collaboration. This initiative is backed by multiple federal agencies, including NSF, the Department of Energy, and the Department of Homeland Security, along with potential support from philanthropic organizations.Apply for 20 562
