The NSF ADVANCE program goal is to broaden the implementation of evidence-based systemic change strategies that promote equity for STEM [2] faculty in academic workplaces and the academic profession. The NSF ADVANCE program provides grants to enhance the systemic factors that support equity and inclusion and to mitigate the systemic factors that create inequities in the academic profession and workplaces. Systemic (or organizational) inequities may exist in areas such as policy and practice as well as in organizational culture and climate. For example, practices in academic departments that result in the inequitable allocation of service or teaching assignments may impede research productivity, delay advancement, and create a culture of differential treatment and rewards. Similarly, policies and procedures that do not mitigate implicit bias in hiring, tenure, and promotion decisions could lead to women and racial and ethnic minorities being evaluated less favorably, perpetuating historical under-participation in STEM academic careers and contributing to an academic climate that is not inclusive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n All NSF ADVANCE proposals are expected to use intersectional approaches in the design of systemic change strategies for STEM faculty in recognition that gender, race and ethnicity do not exist in isolation from each other and from other categories of social identity. The solicitation includes four funding tracks Institutional Transformation<\/em><\/strong> (IT)<\/em><\/strong>, Adaptation<\/strong><\/em>, Partnership,<\/strong><\/em> and Catalyst,<\/strong><\/em> in support of the NSF ADVANCE program goal to broaden the implementation of systemic strategies that promote equity for STEM faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that NSF ADVANCE does not provide fellowships, research, or travel grants to individual students, postdoctoral researchers, or faculty to pursue STEM degrees or research. <\/strong>Undergraduate STEM opportunities can be found at stemundergrads.science.gov<\/a> and graduate STEM opportunities at stemgradstudents.science.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All the STEM fields supported by NSF are supported by the ADVANCE program including the learning, social, behavioral, and economic sciences.\u00a0 ADVANCE does not support the clinical science fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link to the funding opportunity page: https:\/\/www.nsf.gov\/funding\/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5383&org=NSF&from=fund<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ADVANCE: Organizational Change for Gender Equity in STEM Academic Professions | NSF – National Science Foundation PROGRAM GUIDELINES Solicitation\u00a0 19-552 Important Information for Proposers A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures Guide (PAPPG) (NSF 19-1), … Continue reading
