The Nonprofit Sector Research Fund, a program of the Aspen Institute, seeks to improve understanding of nonprofit activities and inform related practice and policy.
To this end, the Fund periodically disseminates requests-for-proposals (RFPs) that announce the availability of funding to support research projects on critical nonprofit issues.
In all of its RFPs, the Fund encourages applications from researchers currently engaged in the study of the nonprofit sector, and also from scholars grounded in academic disciplines (e.g., economics, political science, sociology, law, public policy, history, management, etc.,) who are new to nonprofit research.
We currently have no open RFPs. Please check back occasionally for updates.
Grants for Doctoral Dissertation Research
The Nonprofit Sector Research Fund (NSRF) will not award grants for doctoral dissertation research on nonprofit issues in the academic year 2006-2007.
