About this program

Environmental Research & Education Foundation (EREF) Research Grants support research on sustainable materials management and solid waste management, with past awards ranging from $15,000 to over $500,000 (average ~$160,000) and typical project durations of about two years. Applicants must submit a required 2‑page pre‑proposal that aligns with EREF’s RFP strategic priority areas and its definition of solid waste; selected pre‑proposals are invited to submit full proposals evaluated by academic and non‑academic reviewers, with the Research Council recommending awards to the Board. Eligible applicants are academic and non‑academic research institutions conducting sustainable solid waste management research; proposals requesting more than $300,000 or longer than three years must provide sufficient justification and must follow the RFP, pre‑proposal template, and FAQs.
