The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is inviting proposals for cooperative agreements aimed at developing training programs focused on hazardous materials worker health and safety. The primary objective of this funding opportunity, identified as RFA-ES-24-001, is to prevent work-related harm by equipping workers with essential skills and knowledge for safely handling hazardous materials during waste operations and emergency responses. This initiative is particularly significant as it addresses health risks associated with hazardous sites, especially in economically disadvantaged communities, and emphasizes the importance of environmental justice and workforce readiness. The anticipated funding amount for FY2025 is $28 million, with individual application budgets capped at $700,000 for new applicants. Interested parties must submit their applications by July 8, 2024, and can direct inquiries to NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov or visit the additional information link at https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-ES-24-001.html.
