Note: While we are not interested in advancing video monitoring or sensor based solutions, video might be part of data collected, and once deidentified, be a part of the public good asset.

Can team members (other than the PI) be located outside of the U.S., e.g. a Canadian citizen working in Canada contributing to the project as a consultant? Yes, this is allowed.
Can data be collected at international schools if the applicant is U.S.-based? The focus is on the U.S. context. If you can demonstrate that the international data is highly relevant and transferable to the U.S. population, it may be considered, but the team needs to verify this administratively.
