Purpose: Grants-in-Aid of Field Research are provided to support field-oriented projects that include, but are not limited to, archaeological excavations, field surveys, collecting plant voucher specimens, or semi-structured or structured interviews with Indigenous and local peoples in outdoor settings. For all approaches, clearly state how the methods link to the larger research goals. For interviews, include a sample of guiding questions. Proposals with only indoor interviews, or interviews without structure, are not eligible for funding. Proposals that do not follow the guidelines below will not be considered for funding.

Applicants must complete the application cover page, prepare no more than a 2-page single-spaced description (exclusive of references) of the project including research questions and project aims, methods, and anticipated results and impact to the study of ethnobiology, and provide a budget summary with justification (1 page) of the project. Any required permits, or evidence of applications in progress, should be included with the proposal. Awards will be contingent on receipt of required permits. Awardees will be required to submit a final report within six months of the project end date.
