CNCS’s Office of
Research and Evaluation (ORE) is seeking applications to fund research projects
that build on existing research, address gaps in knowledge, and provide new
ideas and methodological approaches to the study of civic infrastructure, civic
engagement, volunteering, national service, and other related concepts such as
social capital. Activities to be funded would include instrument development,
data collection, analysis and reporting, dissemination of results, and collaborations with practitioners and
policymakers to apply research findings.
This competition is
only open to accredited institutions of higher education and will fund both scholars and dissertators. Applications
are due July 11, 2017, no later than 5:00 pm EST. Please CLICK HERE for more information and to apply.
This webinar series is one of several ways the Office of Research and Evaluation (ORE) is striving to share current
research on civic engagement, volunteering, and national service. In
May and June we had presentations from our 2015 National Service and Civic
Engagement Research Competition awardees. In July, the webinar will be on the Senior Corps studies described above.
