“The Cultural Resources Education and Protection project will allow BLM (in partnership with the recipient) to plan, develop, and distribute high-quality educational materials to educators and their students throughout the United States through the National Project Archaeology program. The purpose of Cultural Resources Education and Protection project is to increase awareness of archaeological resources on public lands, their significance, and the need to protect them now and in the future. Project funds will be used to develop and distribute educational materials in schools and in informal learning environments such as public lands visitor centers, museums, and science learning centers and to provide professional development for school teachers and informal educators such as interpreters, museum docents, and youth group leaders. The project will assist BLM archaeologists and managers in protecting archaeological sites on public lands though an educated citizenry.”
