Deadline: 15-Nov-22
The National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE) is accepting applications for its Grant Funding.
NEFE-funded research informs the work of financial educators, practitioners, policymakers and the academic community. The characteristics listed below are not requirements; they should help you formulate a strong research question that aligns with their goals and priorities. They prioritize proactive inquiries initiated from any of the scholarly disciplines—not just finance or economics—whose findings may cultivate critical thinking in financial education.
Eligibility Criteria
- They fund projects that are based on original research questions that necessitate rigorous, empirical and/or theoretical analysis. They also fund replication studies. To be eligible for funding from NEFE, the principal researcher must have the demonstrated ability to implement the methodology and analyze the results, and must be affiliated with a U.S. nonprofit college, university, research organization, or other 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. For a graduate student, this could mean having a co-principal investigator heavily involved in supporting the research study.
-
Your project should:
- Generate new data or utilize existing datasets; original data is not required
- Involve the direct study of U.S. households and individuals or issues and trends pertaining to them (i.e., the scope is domestic)
- Investigate direct impacts of financial education or propose research that results in findings impactful to the field
- Align with their research funding priorities
Ineligible
They do not fund projects that:
- Have commercial or proprietary elements
- Are related to the pilot, development, execution, evaluation, expansion or administration of specific programs, courses or curricula
