Alongside our Placements & Bursaries Programmes, the EWB-UK Research Programme is one of our most direct contributions to alleviating poverty across the globe by creating greater links between academic institutions and partner organisations working in the development sector through research.

About Affiliating your Research:

If you are currently undertaking research that falls within the ethos of EWB-UK you can apply to affiliate your work with us. By affiliating your work, you become one of our EWB-UK Researchers and have access to the benefits and support outlined below. 

Upon completion of your research project, you are expected to hand the report, along with a summarised mini-report, to EWB-UK. We will then publish completed projects online in our Knowledge Bank - subject to the checking of accuracy, quality and any issues relating to intellectual property rights and confidentiality - so that other people can use your work as a resource.
More information for Researchers.

If you are an academic who is undertaking research you think would be of interest to us please use our Academic Application Form to let us know about it.  Alternatively please pass this information on to any researchers you think would be interested.
