The GDPC small research grants program provides funding to university researchers for projects focused on climate resilience in urban areas within selected topics. This program specifically supports scholars who traditionally have limited access to funding, with grants available exclusively to researchers from low- and middle-income countries.

Awards provide up to $10,000 USD for research lasting up to eight months, with a completion deadline of September 30, 2025. This program supports applied and impactful research that can inform policy, planning, humanitarian programming, community action, and so on. Research must be original, and plagiarism will result in immediate disqualification at any stage of the grant process.

Research Topics

The program seeks to stimulate new knowledge in priority research questions under the following topics:

  • Community-Led Climate Adaptation and Resilience Solutions in Cities
  • Socio-Economic and Institutional Drivers of Climate Resilience in Cities
  • Urban Ecosystems for Resilience
