Deadline: 2 November 2015
The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Carnegie Corporation of New York have launched a Call for Proposals provide funding for one to three consortia that will present projects involving a US, a Norwegian, and at least one Southern/emerging power partner. Grants can be up to USD 1 million.
There should be substantial involvement by all three consortia partners, with special emphasis on the Southern/emerging power partner. One institute should coordinate the consortium submission, including taking responsibility for financial management and reporting.
The proposed projects should move beyond the debate between mainstream and critical approaches, and consider the developments mentioned above in order to present ideas connecting peacebuilding policies to current trends and developments in the international system. At the same time, the projects should take into consideration the serious reverses and negative developments noted earlier.
The projects should involve translation of research from both Northern and Southern/emerging powers into practical policy recommendations. Specifically, proposals should demonstrate how to bring those voices into decision-making centers (i.e., EU, NATO, emerging powers governments, and regional organizations such as the OAS and AU).
