For Researchers

“If you’re a new researcher wanting to break into the RCT world, how can you get funding? Partner with an established organization with strong quality control like IPA.”

– Joost de Laat, Professor of Economics and Director, Utrecht University, Centre for Global Challenges

Researchers looking for the highest-quality research support, coupled with local knowledge and policy relationships, partner with IPA. We are looking to engage researchers who want to push the boundaries of innovation and/or bridge research and action at scale.

Our experienced staff can:

• Connect researchers with implementing partners (and vice versa)
• Help identify funding opportunities
• Assist with design and feasibility conversations
• Lead field and survey teams to timely and cost-effective survey completion
• Lead and/or support communications and meetings with implementing partners
• Link researchers to IPA research quality standards and other resources
• Support proposal narratives and budget creation
• Manage grant and financial reporting
• Promote and disseminate results
