What the grant funds

S&T seeks to support foundational research that contributes to advancing the state of the science through novel, nuanced, innovative and rigorous scientific inquiry using diverse and non-traditional strategies. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) aims to: 1. Conduct basic and applied research to improve our understanding of how and why individuals radicalize to violence, mobilize to violence, and disengage from violence using diverse and non-traditional research strategies from a multi-disciplinary perspective. 2. Understand the efficacy of non-government, online interventions to prevent, deter, or otherwise mitigate negative outcomes and harms related to online behaviors as they are related to Homeland Security missions. Please note that any activities conducted for research purposes must include an independent and objective evaluation component to understand outcomes and, if possible, impacts of interventions that are measurable and repeatable. 3. Ensure key stakeholders such as federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial partners, community-based organizations, violence prevention practitioners, and members of the public have the knowledge and tools required to support the implementation of effective prevention and intervention programming. This NOFO will prioritize investigations of historical terrorist and targeted violence acts, events, and movements that occur within the United States and its territories, or that targets its citizens specifically. The focus of this NOFO is to advance the understanding of behaviors and motivations to engage in terrorist or targeted violence activities, to inform greater understanding and provide situational awareness regarding terrorist movements, and to inform the creation of prevention, diversion, and rehabilitation strategies for those involved. Proposals focused on traditional counter terrorism or state-sponsored adversarial behaviors will not be prioritized. Proposals that seek to predict future patterns of behavior or threats will not be prioritized.
