Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00521
The Preservation Technology and Training Dissemination opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00521) was a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement under the U.S. Department of the Interior. Its core purpose was to support a partner relationship with NPS to jointly develop new training opportunities and to spread practical information about technologies used in historic preservation. The emphasis was not just on creating materials, but on actively getting that knowledge into the hands of practitioners and the public through multiple dissemination strategies, with the broader goal of strengthening preservation practice and stewardship across the country.
At the program level, the project was designed to increase both public and private participation in historic preservation programs and activities. A major theme is building a "resource stewardship" ethic among participants, meaning the work aims to shape not only technical competence but also values and long-term responsibility for caring for cultural and historic resources. The opportunity also highlights a public-facing education component: the information, products, and services produced would be shared in ways intended to raise public awareness, expand knowledge, and build support for preserving the nation’s cultural and historical heritage.
Another stated outcome is the generation and sharing of new knowledge that benefits the broader scientific and research community outside of NPS. In practice, that suggests the funded work could include applied research, evaluation of preservation methods, or documentation of results, followed by organized dissemination of findings related to natural, cultural, and historical resources. The opportunity also connects preservation technology and training to a wider interpretive and educational mission by supporting activities that improve the public’s understanding of natural, cultural, historic, and recreational values of places such as ecological conservation areas as well as state and local parks. In other words, the project is positioned at the intersection of technical preservation practice, public education, and broader stewardship of protected places.
