The UK's Department for International Development, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC) announce the launch of this jointly-funded research initiative, which aims to generate evidence on women’s economic empowerment, gender equality and growth in low-income countries. With a focus on sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, the program seeks to support evidence-based research that will promote better policies and outcomes for women and for societies as a whole.
Research must be carried out on or in eligible countries in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, and include the participation of local researchers.
Through this call a single consortium is expected to undertake six to eight (6-8) projects within a total budget of up to $2 million. There is scope for funding one to two (1-2) individual research projects of under $300,000 if the proposed research is on a priority area.
More information and application forms can be found here.
Any Dal faculty member interested in this opportunity is asked to contact Jennifer Morawiecki in IR&D for more information and support in preparing an application.
