Award level

  • Applications must clearly justify the requested grant amount and how it will support the proposed outcomes of the research, up to a maximum amount of $AUD 10,000 for each proposal.
  • If your project requires funds above the $AUD 10,000 level, please highlight in your proposal what could be achieved with extra funding and we will consider it if funds are still available after awards have been granted. The total amount of funding across all projects available is $AUD 40,000.
  • The award will be dedicated to direct research expenses to support data collection, data analysis, and/or writing up of the project (e.g., compensate participants, purchase supplies needed for data collection, pay a research assistant, access online participant panels, transcription services, access longitudinal/ cohort-based datasets, visits to the CEPAR Curtin node).
