Minerva Research Initiative
Abstract
The Minerva Research Initiative includes two primary components: a university-based social science basic research grant program and Research for Defense Education Faculty (R-DEF) at the professional military education (PME) institutions. Both components contribute to Minerva goals of revitalizing connections between DOD and academic social science communities and, critically, building cultural and foreign area knowledge and insights. This deeper understanding will provide a more informed basis to shape doctrine, analysis, and other strategic and operational decisions made by war planners and war fighters.
