About this opportunity

This announcement is to provide public notice of the National Park Services intention to fund the following project activities without full and open competition to Go North! Adventure Learning for the amount of $30,000 to cooperatively complete the project described below. STATUTORY AUTHORITY: National Historic Preservation Act 16 U.S.C.470. STATEMENT OF JOINT OBJECTIVES/PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN: Through this project, Traditional Beringian Sports and Games, the NPS and the Shared Beringian Heritage Program (SBHP) will support an adventure learning program designed to promote, preserve and encourage Beringia¿s rich tradition of sports and games. This project fits with the goals of the SBHP, as well as with the overall goals of the National Park Service. In conjunction with our partner GoNorth! Adventure Learning, the NPS will join forces with the Administration of Chukotka (the SBHP¿s counterpart across the Bering Strait) in an effort to protect and promote Beringia¿s traditional sports and games. Through the encouragement of adventure learning programming and website support, SBHP¿s contribution will augment funding from the Chukotka Administration. (For detailed information on the level of financial and logistical support provided by the Chukotka Administration, please see the attached original proposal.) With the support of the SBHP this programming will provide a unique opportunity for the people of Beringia, and around the world, to explore the region through the prism of traditional games and sports in a new and growing medium: adventure learning. Traditional sports and games are expressions indigenous cultures and ways of life, and are a vital part of human heritage. They advance cultural diversity and protect cultural identity at the local, national and international level. They can form the backbone of a community (UNESCO, 2012). They can also link communities and regions through participation in international events celebrating the importance of sports and games, especially within the communities of Beringa. Beringian Traditional Sports and Games will: ¿ Transmit knowledge, enhance understanding and disseminate and share information on the heritage of traditional sports and games ¿ Improve the role and opportunity for traditional sports and games activities in the formal education process and in the promotion of cultural heritage in both Alaska and Russia. ¿ Strengthen cooperation and exchanges between the United States and Russia Based on the concepts and methods of adventure learning, GoNorth provides learners of all ages across the US and worldwide with transformational learning experiences. These are experiences that advance healthy active living and build literacy in order to ensure sustainable development while enhancing cultural collaboration. A. The partner, in cooperation with the National Park Service will: Go North! Adventure Learning agrees to: 1. Work directly with the Administration of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug and native organizations on the Russian side to successfully conduct the activities outlined under this project. 2. Go North will work directly with the Shared Beringian Heritage Program to incorporate the goals and results into the greater context of the Beringia Program to show the importance of traditional sports and games in rural and urban communities within Chukotka. 3. Go North will support and encourage the participation of community members from rural Alaska and rural Chukotka in the Beringia Games; this work will be accomplished with the input of the Shared Beringian Heritage Program. 4. Project partner and Go Mille Porsild will work with three designated entities of the Government of Chukotka: The Department for Natural Resources and Agriculture, Department for Education and Culture and Department for Sports and Tourism.
