The document discusses the broader impacts criteria that must be addressed in proposals submitted to federal funding agencies like the National Science Foundation and USDA. It provides examples of broader impacts elements that could be included, such as developing educational materials, engaging underrepresented groups, disseminating research to non-scientific audiences, and demonstrating societal benefits. The broader impacts criteria require applicants to consider how their work will promote areas beyond just the research itself, such as teaching, learning, public outreach, and policy influence.
