It will also stimulate innovative partnerships to ensure that robust evidence helps shape policies and programs to deliver better development outcomes for women, economies, and societies more broadly. The program will bring together leading researchers from around the world to work collaboratively in addressing critical knowledge gaps.<\/p>\n<p>Focusing on low-income countries in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, GrOW will produce high-quality evidence on three sets of inter-related themes:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>What are the nature and magnitude of barriers to women\u2019s economic empowerment and to closing gender gaps in earnings and productivity? How can these barriers be overcome?<\/li>\n<li>How do specific patterns of economic growth and types of structural change affect women\u2019s economic empowerment and gender equality?<\/li>\n<li>How do women&#8217;s economic empowerment and gender equality affect economic growth?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>*This call for Expression of Interest invites proposals <b>ONLY <\/b>on theme. Theme 3 will be addressed through a series of commissioned papers (Evidence Synthesis) analyzing the best-available evidence. For more information, read the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.idrc.ca\/EN\/Documents\/GrOW-Call-Document-Theme3-Final.pdf\">Call for Expression of Interest (PDF)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The primary considerations in selecting projects will be the scientific merit of the research proposal and its potential for development impact, including capacity building.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Eligibility<\/h3>\n<p>Only applications that meet the following eligibility criteria will be considered for funding:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The proposed project is to be led by a research-oriented institution with legal corporate registration. IDRC enters into agreement with legal entities only.<\/li>\n<li>Research consortia comprised of up to three institutional partners may also apply, however one partner must be designated as the lead institution. The lead institutions should submit the application to IDRC on behalf of the consortium. The lead institution will sign the grant agreement with IDRC and as such be responsible for receiving and administering the funds, and ensuring that all grant conditions are met. Research-oriented institutions can include academic, governmental, private sector and non-profit organizations.<\/li>\n<li>UN, donor and multi-lateral organizations are NOT eligible to apply.<\/li>\n<li>Applications from individual persons will NOT be accepted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>International partnerships are strongly encouraged, particularly those that involve Southern-based researchers.<\/p>\n<p><b>NOTE:<\/b> While the GrOW program focuses on low-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and\/or South Asia, this synthesis of evidence does NOT need to be restricted to those countries. However, the syntheses should clearly demonstrate the existing or potential relevance of lessons and evidence for low-income contexts.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Funding Available<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Maximum
