Participatory Sciences Microgrants
The Global One Health Academy is proud to partner with Citizen Science Campus to offer Participatory Sciences Microgrants. These microgrants advance graduate research that utilizes participatory science approaches and/or advances the field of participatory sciences.
About the Participatory Sciences Microgrants
Offered by the Global One Health Academy and the Citizen Science Campus, the Participatory Sciences Microgrants are designed to jump-start research projects led by students in the Participatory Sciences Graduate Certificate at NC State. Research supported by these awards could include projects that use participatory approaches in the research process, or research about participatory sciences as a discipline.
Eligibility
To be eligible for this award, the applicant must be a graduate or professional student at NC State and enrolled in the Participatory Sciences Graduate Certificate. Interested students may enroll in the certificate at any point up through the application deadline. Students from all disciplinary backgrounds are encouraged to apply. There are no requirements for the topical focus of the research project, but interdisciplinary questions are encouraged. Projects must either use a participatory research approach or advance the study of participatory sciences as a discipline to be eligible for this funding.
Note that this call is intended to fund research-related efforts. Generally, conference and workshop attendance is not supported, although an exceptional conference/workshop experience that directly contributes to research (e.g., data collection, participant recruitment, etc.) may be considered.
