SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Grantee Reporting Requirements for the NSF
Accelerating Research through International Network-to-Network
Collaboration (AccelNet) Program.
OMB Control No.: 3145-New.
Expiration Date of Approval: Not applicable.
Abstract: We are proposing a modified annual/final report template
specific to the Accelerating Research through International Network-to-
Network Collaborations program (AccelNet, NSF 21-511). Briefly, the
program funds planning and implementation awards to investigators
forming international networks of networks that will work
collaboratively to create a research agenda that will advance science
in a way not possible with a concerted international cooperative
effort. More information on the current solicitation can be found on
the program website: <a href="https://new.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/accelerating-research-through-international">https://new.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/accelerating-research-through-international</a>. While NSF requires
awardees to submit annual reports each year of the award and a final
report at the end of the award period, the template is focused on
research outcomes at the national scale whereas our program is focused
on networking activities and workforce development at the international
scale. The NSF standard report template does not include prompts that
are meaningful to the scope of work awarded and does not provide
program directors useful information about achievements and
international activities.
Respondents: Awardees.
Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 70.
Burden on the Public: 24 hours or 3 workdays per award.
Dated: June 2, 2023.

Reports Clearance Officer, National Science Foundation.
