Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague


IIE's USAID-funded Democracy Fellows and Grants (DFG) Program is pleased to announce the release of an Annual Program Statement (APS) to invite applications for Counter-Trafficking in Persons (C-TIP) Campus Challenge Research Grants. This first grants portfolio in the DFG Research and Innovation Grants program is open to scholars at universities and research institutes worldwide. IIE will award two to three grants for research projects in one of three priority areas identified by USAID's Center of Excellence for Democracy, Human Rights, and Governance (DRG Center):

- Comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of a selected USAID C-TIP intervention.
- Public opinion survey to generate data on, and awareness of, TIP.
- Applicant-proposed research that increases knowledge about effective C-TIP interventions.
 
This grant opportunity is part of USAID's C-TIP Campus Challenge, which includes an online community at www.challengeslavery.org; a Tech Contest that provided prizes for innovative technological solutions to address human trafficking; and this APS. Instructions for applying for a C-TIP Campus Challenge Research Grant may be found on the DFG website. Grant applications may be submitted at any time during the APS open period, but applicants are encouraged to submit their proposals by May 17, 2013 in order to be considered in the first review.
 
IIE's DFG Research and Innovation Grants program is intended to strengthen the quality of USAID-funded democracy promotion work globally by integrating the knowledge and skills of the academic community in the design and evaluation of that work. USAID uses Annual Program Statements to invite and support creative and innovative solutions to challenging problems in developing countries. IIE will publish several research grant opportunities in the DRG fields during the five years of the DFG program (September 2012 – September 2017). Interested applicants are encouraged to contact dem.grants@iie.org to receive email alerts when new grant opportunities are published.
