SUMMARY:Deadline: ARIA: Future Proofing Our Climate and Weather (Opportunit
 y Seeds) 2026
DESCRIPTION:ARIA is seeking proposals for opportunity seeds\, funding of up
  to GBP 500\,000 for early-stage research that explores new pathways for c
 limate adaptation and resilience. Decarbonisation is the only sustainable 
 route out of the climate crisis\, but environmental changes are outpacing 
 current mitigation efforts\, and if an abrupt alteration in a climate syst
 em were to unfold we would have no tools to mitigate the effects\; scienti
 fic\, engineering and social science research could provide practical and 
 responsible intervention and adaptation options. WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR
 : ideas ranging from early-stage\, curiosity-driven research through to ad
 vanced translational science. Specific areas of interest include\, but are
  not limited to: carbon dioxide removal (novel concepts to accelerate the 
 drawdown of atmospheric carbon)\; extreme weather forecasting (breakthroug
 hs in predicting extreme weather events to better prepare vulnerable syste
 ms)\; and new ideas related to solar geoengineering\, strictly excluding p
 roposals specifically designed to investigate altering the Earth's surface
  temperature by affecting planetary albedo\, incoming solar radiation\, or
  the atmosphere's emissivity (the core focus of the main Exploring Climate
  Cooling\, ECC\, programme). OUT OF SCOPE: ideas that squarely fit within 
 the ECC programme\; emissions reduction projects and improvements to the e
 nergy efficiency of buildings or vehicles\; and commercial products or res
 earch likely to be funded by traditional venture capital or grants. CONSTR
 AINTS: any proposal for outdoor experiments must demonstrate conformity to
  ARIA's governance framework for outdoor experiments\, and all successful 
 applicants must sign ARIA's Intellectual Property Pledge to ensure finding
 s are accessible for the public good. Application deadline: 31 July 2026\,
  14:00 BST.\n\nOrganisation: ARIA (Advanced Research and Invention Agency)
 \nLocation: UK-based funder (ARIA)\; proposals welcome across scientific\,
  engineering and social science research.\nAward: Opportunity seeds of up 
 to GBP 500\,000 for early-stage research. No application fee.\nDuration: E
 arly-stage research projects (project length set by the proposal)\n\nMore:

SUMMARY:Deadline: Spencer Foundation: Vision Grants 2026 (Research Planning
  Grants)
DESCRIPTION:Vision Grants are research planning grants that give scholars a
 nd their collaborators the time\, space\, resources and support to plan a 
 large-scale study or program of research focused on transforming education
  systems toward greater equity. Rather than a fully fleshed-out research p
 lan\, the proposal is an invitation to think forward about what research i
 s needed to transform education systems toward equity and how that systems
  change will happen\, identifying the system(s) targeted and the specific 
 levers the team thinks must be engaged. Grants bring together a team for 1
 2 to 18 months to collaboratively develop ambitious\, large-scale\, cross-
 disciplinary research projects co-designed with practitioners\, policymake
 rs\, communities and other partners. Awarded teams also join a cohort lear
 ning program held in person in Chicago. ELIGIBILITY: PIs and Co-PIs must h
 ave appropriate experience or an earned doctorate in an academic disciplin
 e or a terminal degree in a professional field\; graduate students may be 
 on the team but cannot be PI or Co-PI. The PI must be affiliated with a no
 n-profit or public/governmental institution willing to serve as the admini
 stering organization (colleges\, universities\, school districts\, researc
 h facilities\, or other 501(c)(3) non-profits\, or non-US equivalents)\; t
 he Spencer Foundation does not award grants directly to individuals. Open 
 to applicants in the US and internationally\; proposals in English\, budge
 ts in USD. PIs and Co-PIs may apply even with another active Spencer grant
  or proposal in review\, but may not be part of more than one Vision Grant
  proposal. Note: a Vision Grant is a prerequisite for applying to Spencer'
 s Transformative Research Grant program (TRG\, USD 3.5 million)\, though r
 eceiving one does not guarantee a TRG. PROCESS: applications opened 4 June
  2026. A required Intent to Apply form (max 200 words\, non-binding) is du
 e 12 August 2026 at 12:00 PM noon Central time\; the Full Proposal (2000-w
