This award provides support to U.S. researchers participating in a project competitively selected by a 55-country initiative on global change research through the Belmont Forum. The Belmont Forum is a consortium of research funding organizations focused on support for transdisciplinary approaches to global environmental change challenges and opportunities. It aims to accelerate delivery of the international research most urgently needed to remove critical barriers to sustainability by aligning and mobilizing international resources. Each partner country provides funding for their researchers within a consortium to alleviate the need for funds to cross international borders. This approach facilitates effective leveraging of national resources to support excellent research on topics of global relevance best tackled through a multinational approach, recognizing that global challenges need global solutions. This award provides support for the U.S. researchers to cooperate in consortia that consist of partners from at least three of the participating countries. The teams will establish transdisciplinary networks to develop innovative solutions for sustainable development pathways and seek to assess the positive and negative inter-linkages between the economy, technology, institutions with the environment, climate, biodiversity, and human well-being to understand potential pathways to a sustainable world.The project focuses on formulating pathways for sustainable agriculture by engaging with stakeholders to co-develop an indicator system and associated products that will measure agriculture sustainability. The consortium will identify the inter-linkages among various sustainable development goals (SDGs) related to agriculture and identify strategies for advancing sustainable agriculture to help inform policy. To maximize the interactions and collaborations across the boundaries of disciplines, sectors, and nations, the consortium will organize a range of networking and co-learning activities, such as consortium-wide meetings, regular experience sharing and peer-learning sessions, and field visits. The research team will also cultivate cross-country partnerships to investigate the historical trajectories of agriculture sustainability and to analyze tradeoffs between their developed indicators and SDGs in each region and the globe.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为参加一个由55个国家通过Belmont论坛进行全球变更研究的计划竞争性选择的项目提供了支持。 Belmont论坛是一个研究资助组织的财团，专注于支持全球环境变化挑战和机遇的跨学科方法。 它的目的是加快迫切需要的国际研究的交付，以通过结盟和动员国际资源来消除可持续性的关键障碍。每个合作伙伴国家为财团内的研究人员提供资金，以减轻资金越过国际边界的需求。这种方法促进了国家资源的有效利用，以支持通过跨国方法解决全球相关性主题的出色研究，并认识到全球挑战需要全球解决方案。该奖项为美国研究人员提供了支持，以在财团中合作，该公司由至少三个参与国家的合作伙伴组成。 团队将建立跨学科网络，以开发创新的解决方案，以评估经济，技术，技术，机构，机构，气候，生物多样性和人类福祉之间的积极和负面联系，以了解可持续世界的潜在途径。可持续性。 该财团将确定与农业有关的各种可持续发展目标（SDG）之间的联系，并确定促进可持续农业以帮助政策的策略。为了最大程度地提高学科，部门和国家界限的互动和合作，该财团将组织一系列网络和共同学习活动，例如整个财团的会议，定期的经验共享和同伴学习会议和实地访问。 研究团队还将建立越野伙伴关系，以调查农业可持续性的历史轨道，并分析其在每个地区和环球的开发指标和可持续发展目标之间的权衡。这项奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估该基金会的智力功能和广泛的影响来评估NSF的法定任务。
