Description
Oregon Sea Grant’s Conference and Activity Support provides resources for conferences, meetings, workshops, and other activities that promote interaction, engagement, or discussion among its partners and interested parties. Supported activities must align with Oregon Sea Grant’s strategic plan, values, and goals. Small requests for timely responses may also be considered.
The program prioritizes activities that advance Oregon Sea Grant’s vision and mission and benefit its employees, grantees, and/or Oregon coastal communities. Special consideration is given to activities reflecting the breadth of the program. Support must align with Oregon Sea Grant’s non-advocacy, neutral, third-party philosophy. The leadership team reviews strategic alignment, the fiscal officer assesses funding availability, and the Director makes final support decisions.
