Termination of Award
Dear Friends, Partners, Collaborators and Students,
On April 17 2025 we received a notice of immediate grant termination for the MBDA `Inana award to Chaminade. The notice was signed by Mr. Nate Cavanaugh from DOGE and it stated that the award no longer was in line with the government’s priorities. We note that this is a component of the effective shuttering of the MBDA itself, reported widely in the media. Effective immediately this award is in closeout and no project programming will be continued. We thank you for your support.
