The National Science Foundation (NSF) invites proposals for the Findable Accessible Interoperable Reusable Open Science Research Coordination Networks (FAIROS RCNs).
The FAIROS RCN program seeks to create three-year Research Coordination Networks (RCNs) which will foster catalytic improvements in scientific communities focusing on the FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse) guiding principles and Open Science best practices.
Of Arctic relevance, the FAIROS RCN program also aims to explore how to support equity and democratization of access to data, including, but not limited to, implementing the CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance: Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics.
FAIROS RCN proposals must select one of two tracks to focus on, either: 1) Disciplinary Improvements to targeted scientific communities, or 2) Cross-Cutting Improvements that apply to many or most scientific disciplines. In the case of proposals focused on Disciplinary Improvements, it is strongly recommended that prospective Principal Investigators (PI) contact a program officer from the list of Cognizant Program Officers in the directorate closest to the major disciplinary impact of the proposed work to ascertain that the scientific focus and budget of the proposed work are appropriate for this solicitation. In the case of proposals focused on Cross-Cutting Improvements, it is strongly recommended that prospective PIs contact a program officer from the list of Cognizant Program Officers from the Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure.
