Developing high-quality research depends on establishing and promoting environments necessary for the generation of new knowledge and for experimentation in new methods, approaches and ideas. Such development requires theoretical and methodological experimentation in the early stages of the research process. Accordingly, the Research Development Initiatives (RDI) program supports research that both assesses and elicits the changing directions of research and the evolution of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. The program provides short-term support that enables grant holders to develop their research to a point where they are able to submit fully developed proposals to other programs with the aim of producing and effectively disseminating advanced research findings.
Objectives
The overall objective of the RDI program is to support research in its initial stages by supporting the development of new ways of analyzing, structuring, integrating and transferring knowledge in the humanities and the social sciences. The specific
objectives of the program are to help researchers to:
develop new research questions;
explore conceptual and methodological perspectives and directions;
critically analyze and assess research, including its achievements, impacts, strengths and state of development.
Value and Duration
The maximum value of an RDI grant is $40,000 over two years. Applicants may request support for one or two years. Competitions are held twice a year.
Note: RDI grants are not renewable. Council expects that the research that the grant supports may lead to mature research proposals suitable for submission to other funding programs, whether those of SSHRC or other agencies. |
