Awarding funding for collaborative academic-policy projects

A toolkit for research organisations to support greater understanding of the value of collaborative projects in academic-policy engagement and how to set up a funding stream to make such awards.

Collaborative funding can be a valuable tool for stimulating engagement between researchers and policymakers. Our newest toolkit, “Awarding Funding for Collaborative Academic-Policy Projects”, aims to support greater understanding of the value of collaborative projects in academic-policy engagement and how to set up a funding stream to make such awards.

You will gain knowledge on: 

  • The benefits of collaborative funding for researchers and policymakers alike
  • The collaborative funding process, from application to evaluation
  • Developing your own application forms and marking criteria 

This toolkit is based on CAPE’s experience of delivering the CAPE Collaboration Fund from 2020-23 in which we awarded £424,000 for 20 collaborative projects.
