One component of NSF’s strategic plan is to increase the extent to which U.S. researchers engage with the international research and education community. It is the Office of International Science and Engineeering’s aim to identify opportunities for international engagement that will enable transformative research, new modes of investigation and networking, and development of a diverse, globally-engaged workforce.
It is in this spirit that the new solicitation, "Catalyzing New International Collaborations" was developed:
This solicitation offers support for the exploratory phase of an international collaboration with the strong expectation that the next phase will involve submission of a follow-on proposal for continued funding of the collaborative research. In this model, OISE supports the initial phases of a collaboration which then generates a competitive research proposal to an NSF disciplinary program. In addition, the solicitation offers the opportunity to experiment with new modalities for supporting international collaborations.
OISE does not provide support for U.S. scientists and engineers to participate in international conferences or congresses; nor does it provide support for such meetings. OISE can support workshops that may immediately precede or follow a larger-scale conference when they add an international dimension that is focused on building research collaboration. See NSF Grant Proposal Guide sections II.D.8 & II.D.9 and the OISE Catalyzing New International Collaborations solicitation.
The Catalyzing New International Collaborations program supports the participation of U.S. researchers and students in activities intended to catalyze new international collaborations.
