Description: 

STEG invites applications to the seventh call for proposals for Small Research Grants (SRGs).

SRGs of between £10,000 and £25,000 can fund research assistance, data collection and/or purchase, and potentially research stipends/teaching buyouts (see SRG Budget Guidelines for eligibility requirements). Grants also support travel to field sites, even when secondary data is utilised. We view this kind of travel (with the possibilities for field visits and conversations with policy makers) as particularly important for researchers who lack prior experience in the countries that they intend to study.
