In August 2024, NIDIS announced up to $4 million in funding for 8 two-year projects as part of the Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) NIDIS Coping with Drought: Understanding and Assessing Drought in a Changing Climate competition. This competition seeks projects focused on improving drought indicator performance to account for non-stationarity with the goal of more accurate drought assessments that support communities in preparing for, mitigating, and responding to drought. 

This informational webinar provided interested parties with an overview of the competition from the program officer and the opportunity to ask questions. A webinar recording and FAQ are now available on the Climate Program Office grants website as well as the NIDIS competition web page

A second informational webinar will be held on Wednesday, October 23, 2024 at 1 p.m. ET and will focus on general feedback provided on Letters of Intent.
