 International Grants » Developing Country Researcher's Grants

MEASURE Evaluation Population & Reproductive Health Associate Award (PRH) is pleased to announce a small grants program to build the evidence base in family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH), support the research efforts of developing country researchers and their institutions, and maximize opportunities to use research findings for decision-making.

The small grants are intended to support primary and secondary data analysis, especially program or policy evaluation, and data use activities based on research findings.

Small grant recipients are expected to produce a publishable manuscript and complete a data use activity.

Eligibility:

  • Eligible candidates must be seeking to build the research and/or data use capacity in country or regional academic institutions or centers, non-profit or for-profit research organizations, parastatal or non-governmental organizations in MEASURE Evaluation PRH priority countries and USAID Tier One countries.
  • Eligible research proposals will respond to a question of interest to stakeholders in the country or region being studied with appropriate and rigorous methods.
  • Eligible proposals should be comprised of a team of at least two people, and particularly for the data use activities, are encouraged to include individuals not typically involved in the research process (policy advocates, program implementers, knowledge management specialists, community leaders, women’s groups, etc.).

    Award:

  • The base amount for a small grant is US$5000, which is intended to cover basic research expenses.
  • Additional funding may also be provided for research projects that include supplementary data collection.
  • Special technical assistance will be available to proposals that include the use of mapping or spatial analysis and applicants are encouraged to include the use of geographic tools and data in their work

    Deadline: 31st December
