2018 International Policy Ideas Challenge

SSHRC and Global Affairs Canada recently announced the launch of the third annual 2018 International Policy Ideas Challenge.

Deadline: May 18, 2018

Amount: $3000 (for 10 winning projects)

Description: The International Policy Ideas Challenge is designed to identify concrete innovative solutions to emerging international policy challenges faced by Canada. Each proposal should offer solutions bridging at least two of the three policy areas under Global Affairs Canada’s mandate – foreign policy, trade, and international development.  Applicants will submit brief proposals. The authors of ten winning proposals will be given several months to further develop their ideas into policy briefs, which will then be presented to Government of Canada officials in a special day-long symposium, hosted by Global Affairs Canada in Ottawa in late Fall 2018.

Eligibility: graduate students (Master’s and PhD level) and post-doctoral fellows at a recognized Canadian post-secondary educational institution; applicants must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada
