One of the goals of the President’s
strategy is to harness science and
technology to address the ‘‘grand
challenges’’ of the 21st century. This
Request for Information (RFI) is
designed to collect input from the
public regarding (1) The grand
challenges that were identified in the
strategy document; (2) other grand
challenges that the Administration
should consider, such as those
identified by the National Academy of
Engineering; (3) partners (e.g.,
companies, investors, foundations,
social enterprises, non-profit
organizations, philanthropists, research
universities, consortia, etc.) that are
interested in collaborating with each
other and the Administration to achieve
one or more of these goals, and (4)
models for creating an ‘‘architecture of
participation’’ that allows many
individuals and organizations to
contribute to these grand challenges.

Eastern Time on April 15, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Obama Administration believes that
grand challenges should be an
important organizing principle for
America’s science, technology and
innovation policy. Grand challenges can
address key national priorities, catalyze
innovations that catalyze economic
growth and quality jobs, spur the
formation of multidisciplinary teams of
researcher and multi-sector
collaborators, bring new expertise to
bear on important problems, strengthen
the ‘‘social contract’’ between science
and society, and inspire students to
pursue careers in science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics.
There are multiple types of grand
challenges. Some define important
problems in a particular field of science
and engineering. For example, in 1900,
the German mathematics professor
David Hilbert posed 23 ‘‘mathematical
