This ground-breaking, flagship project aims to contribute to research and policymaking on the impacts of migration on development. Six commissioned research teams will each undertake a study examining the impacts of international migration on development in their chosen country of study.\\r\\n\\r\\nEach study involves two key components:\\r\\n* Household survey examining developmental impacts of international migration on the country in question.\\r\\n* 50-100 page country report analyzing both the developmental impacts and the role of policy in enhancing the positive effects of migration while minimizing negative impacts.\\r\\n\\r\\nBudget: US $500,000\\r\\n\\r\\nDeadline: November 26, 2007\\r\\n\\r\\nSpecial weight will be given to cost-effective studies.

\\r\\n\\r\\nIndividual applications are not accepted - researchers must be part of a country study team which includes those conducting the household surveys and those that will write the country report. Researchers or institutes are not restricted, however, only to one bid. Individuals may apply as many times as they wish, as long as they are always part of a full country study team.\\r\\n\\r\\nFor more information on the project and application guidelines check GDN website.
