Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AC00307
The Climate Change Communication Internship Program is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, offered through a cooperative agreement. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number P17AC00307 and is categorized under the employment, labor, and training activity area (CFDA 15.945). It was originally created on May 31, 2017, with an original application closing date of June 13, 2017. The program anticipated making a single award, with a maximum (ceiling) amount of $34,750.
Eligibility is limited to private institutions of higher education, meaning the applicant pool is restricted to private colleges and universities that can administer an internship-focused project aligned with the program theme. Because the instrument type is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the National Park Service would generally expect to have a more active role in the project’s oversight or collaboration compared with typical grant arrangements.
The description indicates this particular posting is a modification rather than a brand-new program competition. Specifically, it exists to add already-available funds in order to complete an objective that had been previously stated under Task Agreement P17AC00403. In practical terms, that language usually signals an administrative update tied to an existing project or award, where additional funding is being applied to finish the original scope of work, rather than an open-ended solicitation for new, unrelated proposals.Apply for P17AC00307
