Hi All, This is a reminder for the USAID’s PEER program: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is pleased to announce cycle 9 of the Partnerships for Enhanced Engagement in Research (PEER)<https://sites.nationalacademies.org/pga/peer/index.htm> program is open and accepting general research proposals until February 10th, 2020. PEER invites international scientists to apply for funds to support research on topics with strong potential development impacts. USAID is dedicated to addressing critical challenges across several sectors including global health, water and sanitation, agriculture, and economic growth. Selected projects will work in tandem with U.S. scientists from universities who received funding from other federal USG agencies. We encourage you to apply for these opportunities or share within your networks using this promotional toolkit<https://spark.adobe.com/page/udVUHT1Z5zOwf/>. USAID is committed to working with our partners to find innovative solutions to global development challenges.
