The National Park Service announces a call for applications for projects
to be conducted under the Shared Beringian Heritage Program.
The Shared Beringian Heritage Program of the National Park Service is an
international program that unites American and Russian Natives,
scientists, land managers, conservationists and other interested parties
in promoting the protection, understanding and enjoyment of the common
heritage of the Beringia region of northwestern Alaska and eastern
Chukotka.
Projects funded under this program may be either scientific research
projects or local, community-based educational, cultural or conservation
projects that fulfill some or all of the goals of the Beringia program.
Scientific research proposals are expected to contain sufficient detail
for technical review by subject matter specialists.
If you are interested and would like to receive detailed information on
