Overview

The High-Risk Research in Biological Anthropology and Archaeology (HRRBAA) initiative provides small funding grants to researchers looking to carry out anthropological study in unusual or remote locations. Recognizing that such promising projects may struggle to secure financial support due to the inherent challenges in assessing their feasibility from afar, this program enables investigators to evaluate the viability of their research proposals.

A key prerequisite is that the proposed projects must be high-risk by nature. The insights garnered from this preliminary investigation can then be used to structure a more comprehensive research program. Before submitting a proposal for HRRBAA support, researchers are required to contact the relevant NSF Program Director. This step ensures that the proposed work aligns with the HRRBAA's funding criteria.
