• An organization may receive up to one FY27 award in either the Research Labs program or the Research Grants in the Arts program. 

Program Description
The NEA Research Labs program is a funding opportunity under the NEA’s Research Awards initiative. The program funds long-term research agendas (referred to herein as NEA Research Labs, or Labs) that include multiple empirical studies and the dissemination of various products or services for promoting public knowledge about the arts and their contributions to American life. Each Lab must include an interdisciplinary team of researchers. Products or services developed under the award are expected to be of value to arts researchers, arts practitioners, and professionals in sectors such as healthcare, education, and business or management. Funded projects should have national, regional, or field-wide significance.  Projects supported through this program include: 

1.  Arts and Health. Includes studies that will test or characterize the benefits of the arts or arts and health activities—including creative arts therapies—in terms of health and wellbeing for people or communities. The NEA has a special interest in supporting such projects in the following contexts: • Military personnel, veterans, and their families •
   • Pediatric cancer care and other childhood diseases
   • Opioid use prevention, treatment, and recovery
   • Disaster relief and emergency response and preparedness
   • Care of older adults experiencing cognitive or neurodegenerative declines
2. Arts and the Economy. Includes studies that will test or characterize the benefits of the arts or arts activities in terms of economic or workforce development.
   • The NEA has a special interest in supporting such projects involving the arts in Artificial Intelligence (AI) competency training, in career development for people with disabilities, and/or in preparation for high-paying skilled trade jobs of the future.
3. Arts and Education. Includes studies that will test or characterize the benefits of the arts or arts activities in terms of school readiness, school engagement, or academic achievement among children from preschool through high school.
   • The NEA has a special interest in supporting such projects for learners with autism spectrum disorder or intellectual disabilities. 

Applicants seeking funding solely for discrete research studies and the promotion of their results should instead apply to the Research Grants in the Arts program.

Executive Summary 
The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy Human Rights and Labor,
Office of International Religious Freedom (IRF) announces an open competition
for organizations interested in submitting applications for a program to provide
emergency financial assistance to victims of religious persecution and defenders of religious freedom.

IRF promotes religious freedom as a core objective of U.S. foreign policy that
makes America stronger, safer, and more prosperous. IRF’s mission is guided by
its statutory mandate established by the International Religious Freedom Act of
1998 (IRF Act) and the Frank Wolf International Religious Freedom Act of 2016
(Wolf Act). The IRF Act provides that it is the policy of the United States,
“standing for liberty and standing with the persecuted, to...promote respect for
religious freedom by all governments and peoples.” To that end, the Wolf Act calls
for the State Department to issue foreign assistance awards to promote respect for
religious freedom and combat religious freedom violations.

As declared in President Trump’s Executive Order 13926, the promotion of
international religious freedom is a “national security imperative” and “a foreign
policy priority of the United States.” Pursuant to that Executive Order, IRF funds
foreign assistance programs to “anticipate, prevent, and respond to attacks against
individuals and groups on the basis of their religion, including programs designed
to help ensure that such groups can persevere as distinct communities; to promote
accountability for the perpetrators of such attacks; to ensure equal rights and legal
protections for individuals and groups regardless of belief; to improve the safety
and security of houses of worship and public spaces for all faiths; and to protect
and preserve the cultural heritages of religious communities.”

Information on religious freedom conditions globally can be found in the State
Department’s annual International Religious Freedom Report.

Applicants will be responsible for ensuring program activities and products are
implemented in accordance with the Establishment Clause of the United States
Constitution.

The Office of Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) is a key component of the Department’s and ACN’s efforts to advance the Administration’s top national security and foreign policy objectives in a cost-effective and impactful manner.  CTR uses programming and training with foreign partners to advance President Trump’s America First Investment Policy (NSPM-3) and America’s AI Action plan by disrupting the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) exploitation of critical U.S. intellectual property (IP) and dual-use technologies, including AI, biotechnologies, quantum, semiconductor, and space technologies, through research security, cybersecurity and IP protection training.  As the programmatic lead for the Foundational Infrastructure for the Responsible Use of Small Modular Reactor [SMR] Technology (FIRST) program, CTR implements Section 8(e) of EO 14299 on Deploying Advanced Nuclear Reactor Technologies for National Security by helping U.S. vendors deploy secure, safe U.S. SMRs to strategic regions, including Latin America, the Indo-Pacific, and the Middle East, to outcompete strategic competitors for decades-long partnerships, generating multi-billion dollar deals for U.S. companies and creating thousands of American jobs.  CTR implements maximum pressure on Iran (NSPM-2), by training foreign partner countries to implement U.S. sanctions on Iran’s nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs, and disrupts proliferation networks tied to the CCP, DPRK, and Russia that undermine U.S. interests.  CTR also advances EO 14292 by preventing U.S. adversaries from advancing biological weapons capabilities through targeted biosecurity, physical security, and cybersecurity trainings and disrupts Iran’s and other U.S. adversary chemical weapons programs through assisting supply chain security of precursor chemicals and equipment. Finally, CTR advances EO 14285 Unleashing America’s Offshore Critical Minerals, by training critical mineral holders to derisk from reliance on Chinese and Russian Private Military Companies in favor of U.S. security firms.
