CRCC Pentecostal and Charismatic Research Initiative

Individual Grants

The Pentecostal and Charismatic Research Initiative (PCRI) request for proposals (RFP) for Individual Grants is designed to provide a scholarly framework based in the social sciences and financial support for research into Pentecostalism and charismatic Christianity in four specific geographic regions: Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the former Soviet Union. (Please see the Frequently Asked Questions page for additional information on eligible regions.)

Applicants may request up to $100,000 over two years (24 months) to support scholarly research, although not all projects can be supported at this level. Doctoral students and scholars affiliated with universities, colleges, and research centers may apply. PCRI will award up to 15 grants in this area. $1,500,000 in grant funding is available for the individual grants RFP.

The PCRI judges reviewed letters of intent and sent notifications to all principal investigators in early October. If you submitted an LOI but did not receive notification, please contact us immediately.

If you received an invitation to submit a full proposal, the deadline is December 15, 2009, 5:00 p.m. PST.
