Calling agricultural researching teams from Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Georgia, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal and Tanzania! 

The 50x2030 Initiative invites you to submit research proposals for the 2025 Data Use Research Competition. Proposals must use data collected under the 50x2030 Initiative to answer current policy-relevant questions in your country and clearly demonstrate how the research can inform national policy priorities. 

The proposed research must answer questions or issues that have been identified by your country in the areas of SDG2: Zero Hunger. Eligible areas of research include agricultural productivity, agricultural exports, food systems, food security and nutrition. Applicants must identify and document how the research will address a priority policy question in the country by explicitly referencing national strategies, policy frameworks or any other type of document that defines national policy priorities. 

The funding for research is up to $5,000 USD per project and for a duration of six months, inclusive of indirect costs. Additional information on eligibility and application details can be found at 50x2030.org.
