Grant Overview
Puerto Rico's disaster recovery efforts are hindered by significant capacity gaps, particularly in its research infrastructure. The island's limited research capacity, exacerbated by recent natural disasters, makes it challenging to conduct rigorous research on disaster recovery. Graduate researchers can address this gap by investigating the impact of natural disasters on communities, economies, and infrastructure. The grant's support for primary data collection will enable researchers to gather data on disaster impacts, recovery efforts, and community resilience. Assessing Capacity in Puerto Rico requires understanding the island's research infrastructure, including its universities and research institutions. Unlike neighboring island territories, Puerto Rico's complex history of colonialism and disaster recovery requires researchers to be aware of the local context. Who Should Apply in Puerto Rico? Researchers with experience working in disaster-affected areas and understanding the local context are well-suited for this grant. The grant's one-time cash award of up to $3,000 will support researchers in covering fieldwork expenses. Puerto Rico's diverse ecosystems, including its forests, wetlands, and coastlines, require tailored research approaches. Researchers must navigate the island's complex power dynamics and engage with local stakeholders to ensure successful project implementation. Key Considerations for Puerto Rico Researchers include developing research methods that respect local cultural protocols and collaborating with community members. The island's unique cultural context, shaped by its history and experiences, demands nuanced research approaches.
