Hi again,<div>Once you have a good project summary, clearly addressing the intellectual merit and broader impacts (NSF's criteria for evaluation) I would send it (not over a page) to both Joan Maling (NSF -- <a href="mailto:jmaling@nsf.gov">jmaling@nsf.gov</a>) and Helen Aguera (NEH <a href="mailto:hagrera@neh.gov">hagrera@neh.gov</a>) ...You can tell them both that you have talked with me and would just like to know if they think that your project fits with the current call for the DEL program. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If you are around the UA anytime, lets meet and talk this through some more...</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Susan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 21, 2011 at 1:20 PM, BSantaMaria <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bernisantamaria@gmail.com">bernisantamaria@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div>Thanks for your info--we'll discuss & think more on this, we have a big Apache summit coming up in the Spring 2012 & hope to include this topic on the agenda. We were planning on involving local GIS tech savvy people in our natural resources depts, etc & the idea of technology involvement is good for local purposes but we have the problem of trying not to publish maps of locations of culturall-sensitive info such as sacred sites, ruins, etc. to greater public or Internet access so that will have to be worked out with more planning meetings.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Also, collaborating with a university would be an option but needs more planning also. Please do send me contact info for those agengies you mentioned. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Again, thanks!</div>

<div>Ms. Penfield:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Have a question for possible grant applic to DEL next year--we've been working on Apache place-names for the Western Apache reservations in AZ for a couple of years without any grant funding but now find a need since the areas we are going to focus on are very large reservation areas & will need additional resources, etc.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My question is if you think it would be feasible for us to submit a grant application to conduct fieldwork on gathering place-names utilizing elder consultants (will need stipends), some current staff (can we use part of salaries as In-Kind contribution?), & additional staff as needed? The main goal is to revitalize & maintain the Apache place names for use by future generations, for teaching tools in local classrooms, develop maps, etc. (in a nutshell) although proposal not yet developed, just ideas for now.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would deem this to be a project that would assist our tribes in revitalizing our Apache languages, along with teaching the oral histories of how place-names came to be, what some represent symbolically, etc. for our young people to learn along with the names.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>One of the consultants/advisors for several years is Dr. Keith Basso, retired Anthropology professor, & the whole group would be an adivsory committee that consists of the Western Apache groups: White Mountain Apache, San Carlos Apache, Yavapai-Apache Nation, Tonto Apache Nation.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We've already been in discussions on this for several meetings & would like an idea if the DEL grant funding or other you might suggest that might be more apt?, we'd like some feedback on whether we can plan on a submission for next year's grant cycle.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for any info & I think I mentioned before that I'm a UA graduate & working on language & cultural knowledge issues.</div>
