Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NOS OCM 2021 2006759
The 2021 NOAA Hawaii Bay Watershed Education and Training (B-WET) Program is a competitive federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Commerce through NOAA. It is designed to advance NOAA's mission of science, service, and stewardship by strengthening environmental education across the Hawaiian Islands, with a clear focus on building healthier, more resilient communities and ecosystems in the face of both sudden shocks and long-term environmental change. At its core, the program aims to help create a well-informed public that can take part in decisions affecting Hawai'i's coastal, marine, and watershed resources, ultimately encouraging choices and actions that lead to positive environmental outcomes.
This opportunity funds projects that expand and improve K-12 environmental education through locally relevant, hands-on learning. The program emphasizes "Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences," which generally means getting students out of the classroom and into real places and real problems where they can investigate local environmental conditions, connect learning to community needs, and understand how watersheds link to coastal and ocean health. Priority topic areas include ocean, Earth, and atmospheric sciences; community resilience to hazards; and place-based environmental management. The intent is not only to teach concepts, but to make learning experiential and grounded in Hawai'i's unique environments and communities, while also aligning with national and state education requirements.
NOAA Hawaii B-WET funding is meant to do more than support individual activities. It is positioned to help develop new educational programs, spur innovative partnerships among schools, nonprofits, agencies, and other education providers, and support geographically targeted efforts that address specific regional priorities. Projects may include professional development for teachers so they can deliver stronger, standards-aligned environmental instruction, as well as service-learning opportunities that allow students to contribute to their communities while learning, such as restoration, monitoring, stewardship, or other applied projects connected to watershed and coastal systems.
The funding instrument types for this opportunity include grants and cooperative agreements, and it is categorized under discretionary funding for environment, natural resources, and science and technology/research and development activities. The CFDA number associated with the program is 11.473. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (other than institutions of higher education). For the 2021 cycle, the opportunity was posted on February 19, 2021, with an original application deadline of April 23, 2021. Awards were anticipated to have a ceiling of $150,000 per award, with about 10 awards expected.
Overall, the 2021 NOAA Hawaii B-WET Program is structured to strengthen environmental literacy and stewardship in Hawai'i by investing in K-12 education projects that connect science learning with local places, local challenges, and practical decision-making.
