CAOE is seeking proposals to improve DHS management of homeland security risks

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has multiple priorities that benefit from risk science research ranging from catastrophic natural disasters, terrorist events, and customs processing, to immigration services and beyond. To properly manage these priorities DHS needs to understand the wide range of risks involved across the Homeland Security Enterprise (HSE).  

CAOE is specifically interested in proposals that will support risk identification and characterization, risk assessment and analysis, risk management and governance, and/or risk perception and communication.  

Proposals should address at least one of the following research areas:

• Understanding and Enhancing the Effectiveness of Risk Approaches
• Proactive Identification and Assessment of Emerging Risks
• Efficient Incorporation of Emerging Technologies
• Organizational Integration and Coordination in the Risk Space.
• Fostering and Incorporating Human and Social Understanding into the Risk Enterprise.
• Translating Risk Analyses into Effective Decisions

A formal proposal review process, including evaluation by external subject matter experts, will be conducted to select those for which a grant award will be offered.
