The GEC solicitation outlines a focused grant program dedicated to combating foreign malign influence by initiating quantified and qualified research into the scope and scale of propaganda and disinformation operations within the digital ecosystems of games and game-adjacent platforms. This initiative is highly aligned with the GEC's core mission, which can be inferred as countering foreign interference and safeguarding democratic information spaces. By specifically targeting the often-understudied gaming environment, the program seeks to close a critical knowledge gap regarding how adversaries use these channels to manipulate or influence populations. The primary priorities and focuses of this grant are geographically centered on Eastern Europe, a region frequently targeted by state-sponsored disinformation campaigns. Methodologically, the focus demands rigorous, dual-pronged research—both quantified (data-driven metrics and scale) and qualified (in-depth analysis of content and methodology)—to accurately characterize the nature of foreign propaganda and disinformation within this digital space. This specificity ensures that the funded research will generate highly relevant and actionable intelligence for policymakers and platform owners alike, concentrating resources where the threat is most pronounced. The target beneficiaries of this work extend beyond the grant recipient to encompass a crucial coalition of stakeholders. The immediate beneficiaries include governments, private industry partners (gaming and tech companies), and civil society organizations who will be invited to a culminating convening. The ultimate impact goal is to empower these groups with the evidence and shared understanding necessary to develop and implement effective defense strategies. This aims to reduce the public's exposure to foreign manipulation and foster a more resilient information environment within Eastern Europe's gaming community. The expected outcomes are clearly defined as the production of a comprehensive research report detailing the findings, and the successful execution of a high-level, multi-sector convening to disseminate and discuss that report alongside related research. Measurable results will include the completion and quality of the report, the attendance and caliber of participants at the convening, and the subsequent discussions or policy recommendations generated. The GEC's strategic priorities are served by this program's Theory of Change: that rigorous, shared research leads to an informed, collaborative stakeholder network, which ultimately results in better-coordinated, data-driven countermeasures against foreign disinformation.

The Northeast SARE Professional Development Grant program aims to advance sustainable agriculture practices by enhancing the knowledge, awareness, skills, and attitudes of agricultural and other service providers. This directly aligns with the foundation's mission to support sustainable agriculture through education and professional development. The grant focuses on empowering professionals who work with farmers, enabling them to teach, advise, or assist in the adoption of sustainable methods. The program seeks to create a ripple effect, where trained service providers then apply their learned expertise to help farmers improve their agricultural practices, fostering a more sustainable food system within the Northeast region. The primary beneficiaries of this program are agricultural service providers, including those in non-profit organizations, colleges, universities, Cooperative Extension, and other entities that serve the farming community. Additionally, the program extends its reach to other service providers such as real estate agents, bankers, and attorneys, who can indirectly influence farmers. The overarching impact goal is to cultivate a more resilient and sustainable agricultural landscape in the Northeast by equipping these professionals with the necessary tools and knowledge. Expected outcomes include increased adoption of sustainable and climate-smart agricultural practices by farmers, improved ecological and economic resilience to climate change, and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The program prioritizes a wide array of topics, encompassing marketing and business, crop production, raising livestock, aquaculture, social sustainability, urban and Indigenous agriculture, and traditional ecological knowledge. A significant focus is placed on climate-smart agriculture practices, which are intended to improve ecological, social, and economic resilience to climate change. This includes practices such as reduced and no-till farming, cover cropping, prescribed grazing, ruminant feed management, manure management, fertilizer management, and on-farm energy efficiency. The program's strategic priorities are clearly aligned with addressing contemporary agricultural challenges through education and practical application. Northeast SARE actively encourages projects from, or in collaboration with, women, the LGBTQIA+ community, and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). Furthermore, it encourages proposals from Minority Serving Institutions and other organizations in the Northeast that work with historically underserved communities, demonstrating a commitment to equity and inclusivity in agricultural development. The theory of change behind these priorities is that by supporting a diverse range of voices and institutions, the program can foster more innovative and equitable solutions for sustainable agriculture, leading to broader and more effective adoption of sustainable practices across the region. The expected measurable results include an increase in the number of service providers trained in sustainable agriculture, a documented increase in farmers adopting climate-smart practices, and the successful implementation of projects that demonstrate improved ecological, social, and economic resilience. Awards typically range from $30,000 to $150,000, with project lengths usually spanning 2 to 3 years, and a maximum allowed duration of 3.5 years. The program's geographical focus is exclusively on the Northeast region, which includes Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, West Virginia, Vermont, and Washington, D.C., ensuring targeted and localized impact within this specific area.
