Tender Description

The Australian Research Council (ARC) on behalf of the Office of National Intelligence (ONI) is conducting a grant opportunity for the National Intelligence and Security Discovery Research Grants (NISDRG).

The NISDRG supports excellent research that deepens understanding of emerging science and technology and addresses intelligence and national security threats.

The NISDRG provides support to research that aligns with the priority research areas identified by the Australian Government. These research areas are outlined in the Intelligence Challenges developed under the broad National Security Science and Technology Priorities. The current Intelligence Challenges are:

  • Covert collection challenges
  • Space-based challenges
  • Identity management challenges
  • Emerging biological and material science exploitation challenges
  • Cyber security, protective security and offensive cyber challenges
  • Human behaviour and influence challenges
  • Data-driven and real-time analytical challenges
  • Situation awareness and multi-source assessment challenges

The objectives of the NISDRG opportunity are to:

  • support excellent research in areas identified in the Intelligence Challenges and National Security Challenges;
  • build Australia’s research capacity and capability in these areas by supporting researchers, fostering research trainees, and contribution to a greater body of open source research;
  • enhance collaboration in the research, science and technology community that supports Australia’s National Intelligence and Security Communities; and
  • support systematic and coordinated engagement between the research, science and technology community and Australia’s National Intelligence and Security Communities.
