Through California's Fifth Climate Change Assessment Tribal Research Grant Program, the state is investing in tribally led climate change research initiatives. This effort is supported by a collaborative multi-agency team to leverage existing expertise and roles across state agencies, including the Governor's Office of Planning and Research, California Natural Resources Agency, California Energy Commission, and California Strategic Growth Council.
Funding through the Tribal Research Grant Program is available to support tribally led projects focused on climate research, Indigenous Knowledge(s), and similar projects deemed a priority by California tribes.
