Applied Research Project (ARP) Partner Application Form
ARPs are a foundational component of the Interdisciplinary Master, during which small student groups conduct policy-relevant research with partner organisations working on issues relating to international development and international relations. ARPs offer a unique pedagogical experience in which students work closely with policy-makers, practitioners and leaders in Geneva and beyond to answer some of the most pressing research questions of global concern.

The 2023-2024 ARP period will run from mid-October 2023 to end-June 2024. Organizations wishing to partner with the Geneva Graduate Institute are encouraged to reach out to Claudia Seymour, Head of Applied Research Projects and Practice (claudia.seymour@graduateinstitute.ch) to discuss research ideas. 

Partner applications are being accepted on a rolling basis. Final applications are due 19 September 2023. Applicants are advised that due to a high level of quality proposals, the process to become a partner organisation is competitive.

Organisations which pass through the first stage of screening will be contacted by the end of September 2023. Selected organisations will be asked to adhere to the Geneva Graduate Institute's Code of Conduct and to sign a partnership agreement.
