The Nasional Science Foundation (NFS) not only evaluates the intellectual merit of proposals, but it also assesses their broader impacts (BI), i.e., how well the proposed activities benefit society or contribute to positive societal outcomes. NSF grant proposals must include a statement outlining the potential societal impact and benefits of the research project. The ARIS Broader Impacts Toolkit can be used to support you in completing an NSF proposal.
