Grant Description

PRM seeks to fund research projects to strengthen evidence-based humanitarian decision making by PRM and its partners worldwide. Research proposals must focus on one of the following topics: understanding refugee return to urban areas; promoting coordination in non-camp settings; adapting urban humanitarian response to local contexts; understanding the relationship between statelessness and gender-based violence (GBV); health impacts of statelessness; and assessing the impact of international community advocacy on gender discrimination in nationality laws. Eligible applicants include (1) Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with IRS, other than institutions of higher education; (2) Nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status with IRS, other than institutions of higher education; (3) Private institutions of higher education; (4) Public and State controlled institutions of higher education; and (5) International Organizations. Please note that PRM will not f und research focusing only on a single NGOМ╒▄ш▄╙s programming unless it is: (1) uniquely innovative programming; (2) conducted in an independent manner; and (3) would generate findings that are credible, generalizable, and relevant to a range of other humanitarian stakeholders. PRM will prioritize funding for proposals that aim to produce practical policy or programmatic recommendations that are applicable to more than one specific population or country. All final reports should include tools, data, findings, and recommendations for policy and program implementation. Recommendations should be concrete, actionable, and directed to specific actors.
