ACBS Foundation Grants
The ACBS Foundation provides grants, up to $2,000 USD each. The ACBS Foundation aims to promote CBS projects around the world. With the goal of facilitating interventions that promote well-being, we are proud to announce a funding mechanism for ground-breaking projects that share this aim in the realms of interventions, training, and research. These could include - but are not limited to - projects involving developing nations, refugees, or other disenfranchised or marginalized people; projects focusing on climate change; interventions in hitherto untested populations; novel applications or modalities of interventions; projects focused on dissemination; projects that address public policy; projects that measure outcomes of training; projects that examine interventions in naturally occurring groups (prosocial); projects that have the potential to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion and/or address institutional racism; projects that address biological correlates of CBS-relevant targets (multi-level approaches); or interventions using technology that would have a wide reach to help people in their natural contexts. Read more about the eligibility requirements and application.
