Subject: Exciting Funding Opportunities

Hi Everyone, 

I wanted to share several exciting funding opportunities with you all, both 
within USAID and through external patners. As always please share these with 
your colleagues and interested students!

1 - Conflict and Development at Texas A&M has a unique student grant 
opportunity for any student at an accredited university worldwide. Students can 
earn up to $5000. The deadline for applications is May 14, 2014.

The Student Media Grants Program is an annual photojournalism grant awarded to 
students interested in using innovative methods to research and chronicle 
issues facing fragile and conflict-affected nations. Interested students should 
submit a proposal by May 14, 2014, that outlines their intended use of grant 
funds, with details about locations to be visited, issues to be studied, how 
the funds will be used and any special needs. They should choose an 
international development area that reflects issues of food insecurity, health, 
education, land tenure, poverty, and other issues faced by people in fragile 
and conflict-affected nations.

2 - Michigan State University's Global Center for Food Systems Innovation 
intends to issue a Request for Application (RFA) in April, 2014. The goal of 
this RFA will be to create innovation in the global food system by finding, 
incubating and evaluating new and potentially disruptive knowledge and 
technology based solutions to development challenges, with an emphasis on 
problems deriving from population growth, climate change and urbanization. 
GCFSI will provide funding of up to $2,050,000 through three levels of grants 
in one RFA.

3 - The Africa Engineering Prize is a new prize program sponsored by the Royal 
Academy for Engineering, and is intended to spotlight and support African 
engineers working on development challenges.
