SRCD Strategic Plan Initiative
Request for Proposals: Small Conference or Study Group

The Society for Research in Child Development issued its first RFP last fall inviting proposals for small conferences or study groups to further the strategic priorities and goals of the Society. Because of the popularity of this initiative and to further attention to the goals of the strategic plan, the Society is pleased to issue a second request for proposals for study groups and other research planning activities that address the strategic plan. The size of awards will vary depending on the needs and goals of the conference or study group. As a general guideline, the range of awards will be $10,000 to $40,000. Priority will be given to proposals for initiatives for which matching funds will be sought. In addition, priority will be given to initiatives that will result in an intellectual product that will be broadly disseminated. Examples include (but are not limited to) books, edited volumes, and special issues of journals (including Child Development), as well as products designed for broader audiences of policymakers or practitioners. Addressing more than one goal of the five part strategic plan is also desirable. The deadline for receipt of applications is March 31, 2009. Funding decisions will be made by June 30, 2009. See the full RFP and application materials here. Applications that do not use the forms provided will not be reviewed. Applicants must be SRCD members.
