Apologies for
cross-posting
The Social Science Research Council is
pleased to announce the following (claimed) Research
Bounty: ‘Who
Gets Cable? Why We Don’t Know and Why That Matters’ has received a $5000 Research Bounty to
fund collaboration between Media Access Project (Harold Feld) and researchers
Scott Sanders (Chicago Media Action) and Greg Rose. Who Gets Cable? By the FCC's
admission, data collection on this issue has failed, leaving it unable to
effectively regulate the primary providers of media and internet services. This
study provides an alternative benchmark based on the Research Bounties
combine an online project clearinghouse with a prize system for research
ideas. See other Bounty projects offered
– Deadline to Claim: September
30th!

for the next Small Grants Competition ($7,500) of the SSRC/Necessary Knowledge

Other
Opportunities: Honorable
Mentions: excellent project proposals from our last Large Grants
round SSRC Collaborative
Large Grants ($30,000) have been extremely competitive, with applicant to grant
ratios of around 7 to 1. Each round sees a number of excellent proposals
that can't be funded due to our limited resources. Following the
announcement of the June 2008 large grant recipients, we want to draw
attention to a number of these excellent projects, in the hope that they will
find success and well-deserved support. Please email us: mediahub@ssrc.org. |
