Deadline: May 14, 2024

Applications are open for the Internet Society Foundation Research Program 2024. The Internet Society Foundation’s Research Program supports global research collaborations that advance understanding of the Internet and its value for all.

This program is intended for research that is applied and open, meaning the research seeks to answer a real-world question and should be openly published and made available to the scientific community at no cost. The Foundation supports research involving human or animal subjects when the project has been certified by a responsible body to be ethical and in compliance with local law. It is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator of the project to obtain these certifications.

Areas of Focus

Statements of interest and subsequent proposals should address topics related to one of the following thematic areas:

  • Greening the Internet
  • The Internet Economy
  • A Trustworthy Internet
  • Decolonizing the Internet

Funding

The program provides for two levels of funding:

  • Independent researchers may apply for funding up to US$200,000. Grants will be awarded directly to individuals who are identified as the principal investigator on the project and he/she will be responsible for grant management including all reporting requirements during the life of the grant.
  • Organizations and institutions may apply for funding up to US$500,000. One or more awards in each of the thematic areas are anticipated subject to fiscal year funding.

Eligibility

  • Independent researchers should have a postgraduate research degree (PhD, Masters) and peer reviewed publications, patents, academic or independently published work in the relevant area.
  • Public research institutions should be 501c3 or equivalent and should have a mission that is aligned to that of the Foundation. (Private institutions are not eligible entities to receive funding).

Selection Criteria

Researchers are encouraged to submit a full application to be reviewed by the independent External Reviewers. Final submissions will be selected based on the following criteria:

  • Is the research in line with one of the Foundation’s thematic areas?
  • Is the research novel?
  • Is the research applied and can inform decision making?
  • Is the research collaborative?
  • Is the research intersectional in its approach?

Application

Applications will be accepted between April 2 and May 14, 2024. The application period closes at 21:00 UTC on May 14, 2024.

This year, they have two different registration forms, one for organizations and universities, and one for individual applicants.

  • Organizations can sign up and register on Fluxx here.
  • Individual researchers can sign up and register on Fluxx here.
