         African Peacebuilding Network Research Grants 2019


The Social Science Research Council’s (SSRC) African Peacebuilding Network Program invites grant applications from African scholars and policy practitioners based on the continent who want to work on a topic related to conflict and peacebuilding. The APN is accepting proposals for two research initiatives:

1) Individual Research Grants: support up to six months of innovative field-based research (up to $15,000)

2) Book Manuscript Completion Grants: support previous APN grantees during the completion of a book manuscript based on their APN-supported or similar research (up to $10,000)



Launched in 2012, the APN supports independent African research on conflict-affected countries and neighboring regions of the continent, as well as the integration of evidence-based knowledge into scholarly discourses, and the practices of regional and global policy communities.

These awards are open to scholars and practitioners from multidisciplinary backgrounds. Individuals that choose to apply for these grants must be based in African universities; regional organizations; government agencies; or nongovernmental, media, or civil society organizations on the continent.

Worth of Award: $15,000 or $10,000 (as explained above)

Eligibility: All applicants must be African citizens currently residing in an African country. This competition is open to African academics, as well as policy analysts and practitioners.
