Summary: The American Anthropological Association supports the National Science Foundation's transition to the Guidance on Financial Assistance but requests a detailed "crosswalk" comparison between the old and new policies to ensure transparency. They also recommend that the new guidance specifically recognize the unique data stewardship needs of anthropological research, support community-based partnerships, and include discipline-inclusive examples.
Please see the attached file for the full comment and list of recommendations from the American Anthropological Association.
