NASA explores the unknown in air and space, innovates for the benefit of humanity, and inspires the world through discovery.
The NASA Disasters program grants are designed for projects that enhance the ability of various stakeholders to use Earth science information for decision-making in disaster risk reduction, recovery, and resilience. These projects require a focus on understanding the connections between hazards, community exposure, and vulnerability for better disaster management. Grant proposals must show potential for tangible benefits to partners, including evidence of improved outcomes in decision-making processes due to the use of Earth observations and demonstrable positive impacts on lives and livelihoods.
