Open Research Area (ORA): Call for Proposals

The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) have announced the call for proposals as part of the 6th call of the Open Research Area (ORA).

The 6th round of ORA is based on an agreement between the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR; France), the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG; Germany), the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC; UK) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC; Canada). There is again a special opportunity for cooperation with projects in Japan.

Proposals may be submitted in any area of the social sciences. However, the disciplinary coverage varies according to the involvement of the national agencies. Applicants who are uncertain of whether their proposal would be eligible should contact the relevant national agencies for clarification.

ESRC is the coordinating agency for this round. All proposals for this call will be submitted through the ESRC’s Joint Electronic Submissions system (Je-S).

Deadline for submission of proposals is 16.00 (UK time) on 11 September 2019.
