The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage applications for research training programs to strengthen the scientific capacity of institutions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) to conduct HIV research relevant to the evolving HIV epidemic in their country. This FOA can support training for conducting research in a broad range of HIV research areas across HIV prevention, treatment, care, and quality of life continuum. This includes basic, epidemiologic, clinical, behavioral and social sciences, community-based, implementation, operations, health services, and health systems research. Cross-disciplinary research as well as HIV associated comorbidities and coinfections affecting the HIV epidemic will be supported under this FOA. An application should focus the proposed training program to strengthen research capacity in a defined high priority HIV scientific area aligned with NIH HIV/AIDS research priorities (NOT-OD-20-018) at a specific LMIC institution and collaborating LMIC partner institutions.

The U.S. Embassy Tokyo of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program for a media study tour for Japanese journalists on trilateral security cooperation. Following the historic August 2023 Trilateral Leaders’ Summit hosted by President Biden at Camp David, the United States, Japan, and Republic of Korea inaugurated “a new era of trilateral partnership,” and committed to strengthening trilateral security cooperation through enhanced trilateral defense exercises, improved information sharing, and increased cooperation on ballistic missile defense, including against DPRK missile threats. To better understand how the trilateral relationship is making strides, print journalists based across Japan will learn firsthand through a five-day media study tour on trilateral security cooperation with travel to Tokyo and Seoul (including the DMZ). They will engage with policymakers and experts from all three nations to gain a deeper understanding of how this enhanced cooperation is occurring and the significance that it plays to the region. The Japan-based journalists will also have an opportunity to meet and network with ROK journalist counterparts, forging important regional connections and facilitating networking connections among media professionals. The U.S. Embassy Tokyo invites proposals from eligible institutions to execute this program. Ground rules for meetings during the trip will be a combination of on-the-record, off-the-record, and background/Chatham House Rule. As much as possible, participating journalists will be encouraged to write articles for their readers around Japan. Proposals should include all cost associated with the program, including: - round-trip international airfare between Japan and the Republic of Korea - domestic travel expenses in Japan (round-trip transportation costs to/from the airport(s) for international departure) - ground transportation and gratuities in the Republic of Korea (e.g., chartered bus) - lodging in the Republic of Korea - ROK visa fee if necessary - overseas travel insurance - meals and incidentals - interpretation fees

The NSF Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) EMpowering BRoader Academic Capacity and Education (EMBRACE) program seeks to support research and educational efforts at "non-R1" institutions, including non-R1 minority serving institutions (MSIs), two-year colleges (2YCs), primarily undergraduate institutions (PUIs), and emerging research and masters level institutions (see Carnegie Classification and Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System). With this solicitation, the EMBRACE program aims to mitigate multiple barriers faced by faculty members in geosciences and related fields at non-R1 institutions in submitting and obtaining federal funding (e.g., high teaching loads, increased expectations for teaching and mentoring, low or no start-up packages, and limited institutional infrastructure and research support personnel). The EMBRACE program supports two categories of proposals: Seed and Growth. Seed proposals can request up to two years of funding for faculty members in GEO-related disciplines at non-R1 institutions to (1) initiate research and/or education programs at their own institutions; and/or (2) build or catalyze research collaborations or partnerships: within the same institution; or across peer institutions; or with research-intensive institutions; or with industry or other non-academic entities; or any combination mentioned above. Growth proposals can request up to four years of funding to enable faculty members at non-R1 institutions to establish independent GEO-related disciplinary research programs. In addition to research, funding may be used to support undergraduate and/or graduate students, post-doctoral scholars, salary (summer, course buyout, sabbatical) and other research related expenses.
