The proposal should include a letter of endorsement from the individual's dissertation director. Grantees will be asked to select the start and end dates of the research project. Grantees are asked to submit a completed research report no later than six months after the start date. The Endowment requires that research reports be 20-40 pages in length. The Endowment will publish the report and disseminate it to appropriate audiences.
Grantees retain all rights to the research and can publish research findings anywhere they wish.
The PricewaterhouseCoopers Endowment for the Business of Government must be cited, however, for providing support for the project. My organization is planning a conference for 100 attendees. Attendance at Endowment supported conferences must be limited to 25-30 attendees to allow a high degree of interaction among participants. The Endowment does not provide support for annual meetings. The Endowment has a policy not to provide overhead in forum grants.
