2024 Pacific Northwest Bay Watershed Education and Training
NOAA’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary office) is seeking proposals under the Pacific Northwest B-WET program (https://olympiccoast.noaa.gov/learn/bwet.html).
The Pacific Northwest Bay Watershed Education and Training (B-WET) program is an environmental education program that supports locally relevant, authentic experiential learning in the K-12 environment.
Funded projects provide Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs; defined below) for students, related professional development for teachers, and help to support regional education and environmental priorities in the Pacific Northwest.
The primary delivery is through competitive grants.
Every year, the NOAA B-WET program supports environmental education programs for thousands of students and teachers.
These programs engage youth in MWEEs that provide memorable hands-on, experiential learning that are not typically available within traditional classrooms.
It also plays a significant role in providing professional development to classroom teachers nationwide that increases their content knowledge, skills, and pedagogical expertise.
