Easy Proposal Submission Form

This form has been provided as an easy method for you to create and submit your short proposals for the GSRDC. Full proposals will come later but right now we are trying to identify scholars who are interested. We cannot guarantee that your proposal will be accepted but when we are awarded the grant, you will be the first on the list. You will also help the region by bringing the GSRDC to life. 

Don't worry if your proposal is not perfect. We will work with you to correct it. You supply the science, and we will supply the format.

Example abstracts of recently approved projects are available by topic. Click one of the links below:
