Expression of Interest is now open!
Next Phase of GI-ACE
Learn about GI-ACE from the Programme Director, Paul Heywood.

The Global Integrity Anti-Corruption Evidence (GI-ACE) research programme, funded by the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), supports research projects designed to generate actionable evidence that may lead to more effective anti-corruption initiatives.

Over the last four years, GI-ACE has supported a total of 19 research projects. Amongst the themes explored in those projects were anti-money laundering, beneficial ownership, cross-border trading, medical theft, procurement risks, and urban planning.

We are now embarking on the next phase, and invite you to submit an Expression of Interest in applying for research funding.

THREE RESEARCH THEMES

Three short-term projects were commissioned in 2022 to help provide the groundwork for phase two of GI-ACE. These projects summarised the state of anti-corruption research in the following key areas:

To advance our programme, GI-ACE is now inviting research teams to submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) to conduct further work that generates practical anti-corruption evidence in one of these three thematic areas.
APPLICATION INFORMATION

The research projects should run for three years, from September 2023 until September 2026, within a budget of no more than £220,000. The research must focus primarily on tackling specific corruption-related issues that affect ODA-eligible countries and ensure that it encompasses a “nose-to-tail” policy approach in line with ACE research principles. We highly encourage proposals from researchers in the Global South or those working closely with Global South partners.

We look forward to research proposing innovative approaches tied to concrete challenges around any of the three themes, including those that incorporate collaboration with practitioners who are directly dealing with these challenges. Research should be carried out in accordance with the framing principles of ACE and its interdisciplinary nature. More about GI-ACE here: https://ace.globalintegrity.org/

For more information about the themes, deliverables, timeline, budget, project management, evaluation criteria, the application process, and submission materials, please go to the GI-ACE EoI page (PDF version here).

All applications must be received by May 1st, 2023 (5pm EDT) via this form. If you have any questions, please contact us at  gi-ace@globalintegrity.org. Thank you for your interest in becoming a part of GI-ACE.
