Call for Submissions: 2022 IPRC Best Policy Brief Award
The Inequality and Policy Research Center (IPRC) is pleased to announce the call for submissions from students at Claremont Graduate University for the 2022 IPRC Best Policy Brief Award.
The Best Policy Brief Award recognizes student work employing quantitative methodology in analysis of inequality and related phenomena affecting vulnerable, diverse communities.
Three entries will receive awards of recognition, including one award of $400 and two awards of $300 (per project). Criteria include level of research, quality of visualizations, and clarity of presentation. Authors of the three entries will be invited to publish their policy brief on IPRC website.
Policy briefs are short research papers exploring an aspect of inequality and concluding with findings and recommendations for policy. Briefs should be no more than 1,000 words in total.
Rising inequality continues to impact lives around the world. Focusing scholarly interest in inequality is the fundamental cause of the Inequality and Policy Research Center.
We encourage research into political, economic, social, health, educational, labor and environmental aspects of inequality and poverty to advance socially equitable policies.
