Open Knowledge Center RFP

The Open Knowledge Center (OKC) invites proposals for short (1 semester) to longer (1-2 year) research collaborations for the 2021-22 and 2022-23 academic years. Proposals are welcomed from any discipline or field, and from graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty at any rank. We are seeking projects that align with the values of the OKC, namely: openness, collaboration, critical engagement, evolution in research practices, curiosity, experimentation, and commitment to support under-resourced or traditionally marginalized scholars and areas of research.


To Apply
The Call for Applications is open now, and will close on August 15, 2021. Proposers will be asked to describe a particular project, your specific needs, capacity for time investment, and ultimate goal for the work over a discrete amount of time. Questions may be directed to the Open Knowledge Center.
