UC Davis Center for Poverty Research Call:
2014-15 Small Grants Competition
RFP: 2014-15 Small Grants Competition for Poverty Research<http://poverty.ucdavis.edu/smallgrants14>
The Center for Poverty Research (CPR) seeks to fund research by junior scholars that will expand our understanding of the causes and consequences of poverty. CPR is interested in projects that display sound research design, high potential impact, and focus on our core research themes: labor markets and poverty; the safety-net, broadly construed to include education and health policies; children and the intergenerational transmission of poverty; and immigration and poverty.

The Center anticipates funding up to 4 proposals, up to a maximum of $25,000 per award. Projects using either qualitative or quantitative data sources are eligible for funding. We are particularly interested in supporting high quality research across a variety of disciplines conducted by junior scholars.
The award period is November 15, 2014 - November 14, 2015; because of the short length of the performance period, we do not anticipate funding projects that seek to collect new data.

Proposals must be received by 5 PM Pacific Standard Time on Monday, September 15, 2014. Applicants can view the complete call and apply at the following link: http://poverty.ucdavis.edu/smallgrants14.
