http://www.encatc.org/pages/index.php?id=19 The Cultural Policy Research Award has been launched in 2004 and been running as a pilot project for 4 years (2004-2007), including the completion of 4 annual cycles. The CPRA, is an award but also a grant of 10,000 Euros. The CPRA is open to young academics, researchers and policymakers aged 35 or under from all European countries. Designed to stimulate academic and applied cultural policy research and to explore, through comparative cross-national research, issues at stake in contemporary Europe, and possibly anticipate new cultural policy orientations, the CPRA has also the ambition to contribute to the process of creating an "infrastructure", a network of scholars who are competent in doing comparative research projects in cultural policy. The CPR Award competition is open to candidates from all European countries. Candidates must be able to speak and write in English. Young academics, researchers and policymakers are eligible for the 10,000 Euro award. Candidates must be educated to M.A. level in social sciences, art & humanities, or public policy research, and must be no older than 35 at the time of applying. Candidates will be assessed according to their qualifications, the relevance of their research project to cultural policy issues, and their vision of how policy recommendations could be implemented. Only applications submitted through the online application form on the CPR Award website will be accepted. Applicants should take into account the Jury’s time constraints - the application documents should be clear and concise. The online application form consists of seven sections (steps): * Applicant contact * Applicant CV * Relevant research paper in English, French, German or Spanish * Cultural policy research proposal - Project information * Cultural policy research proposal - Research plan * Reference * QuestionnaireApplications should be in English. Application deadline: 23 May 2009. Candidates will be selected based on the following criteria: Proposed research projects must focus on matters related to the challenges of cultural diversity. Proposals may tackle this highly topical issue affecting contemporary Europe at three levels: a) locally/regionally/nationally; b) at European level; and c) globally, in relation to its impact on European cultural development. The term 'research in cultural diversity' is used inclusively to refer to cultural policies, education and training, civil society activities, aspects of foreign and security policies, aspects of migration, nlargement and European neighbourhood policies. However, a clear emphasis must be placed on the role of arts and culture in this context. In exploring the role of arts and culture at a time of increased heterogeneity, the research project must address the political and cultural urgency of diversity within our societies and within Europe. It must provide new insights and suggest practical policy orientations and/or recommendations for decision-makers and thinkers (new policy solutions and proposals of new instruments and/or procedures which will create favourable conditions for cultural diversity). Priority will be given to evaluative, comparative and action-research projects which cover the European or macro-regional space. The research outcomes should contain relevant policy proposals for systemic and structural changes, or innovative ideas for rethinking cultural diversity as a resource in the current European context. ..
