FY 2023 Notice of Funding Opportunity for Humanitarian Research - Call for Full Proposals

PRM supports humanitarian research in order to:

1. promote evidence-based decision making on priority protection, assistance, and durable solution challenges;

2. enhance knowledge and develop guidance and tools to improve the performance of the Bureau and its partners; and

3. disseminate and encourage the use of research findings and recommendations, guidance, and tools by other humanitarian stakeholders.

Research is instrumental in helping the Bureau and its partners adapt programs and policy engagement to emerging challenges and priorities, including through the development of tools, operational guidance, and best practices.

This announcement is designed to accompany PRM’s General NGO Guidelines, which contain additional information on PRM’s priorities and NGO funding strategy with which selected organizations must comply. Please use both the General NGO Guidelines and this announcement to ensure that your submission is in full compliance with PRM requirements and that the proposed activities are in line with PRM’s priorities. Submissions that do not reflect the requirements outlined in these guidelines will not be considered.
