Well-Being with Ecosystem Services Grant Program</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center"><a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.epa.gov/research-grants/integrating-human-health-and-well-being-ecosystem-services">Solicitation
is now open!</a></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center">Closing: April 21, 2016</h3>

<p>The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) annouces the
release of the <i>Integrating Human Health and Well-Being
with Ecosystem Services</i> <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.epa.gov/research-grants/integrating-human-health-and-well-being-ecosystem-services">Request
for Applications (RFA)</a>.
This RFA goal is to fund community-based research that will
foster better understanding of how human and well-being are
interconnected with - and depend on - ecosystem services.</p>
<p>Specifically, this research examines how communities can
integrate ecosystem services with human health and well-being
to inform their decision making and management practices. This
RFA aims to develop information that allows communities to
integrate environmental, societal and economic information and
to better manage multiple stressors and their cumulative
impacts on humans and ecosystems. The ultimate goal is to help
communities achieve their own objectives while taking
advantage of more relevant and accessible information about
ecosystem services.</p>
<p>The <i>Integrating Human Health and Well-Being with
Ecosystems Services</i> RFA is part of <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.epa.gov/aboutepa/about-sustainable-and-healthy-communities-research-program">EPA's
Sustainable and Healthy Communities (SHC) Research program</a>.
The SHC Research Program provides useful science and tools for
decision makers at all levels to help communities advance
sustainability as well as achieve regulatory compliance. SHC
is collaborating with partners to conduct research that will
result in science-based knowledge to guide decisions that will
better sustain a healthy society and environment in America's
communities.</p>
<p>Partnerships and community engagement are strongly encouraged
for this research.</p>
