Grants for Research & Development
Updates
- 2012 Call for Proposals (released on April 23, 2012)
- List of Potential Applicants
Background
ITIF will issue a call for proposals in the spring of 2012 for projects to further pursue election accessibility research and design.
We anticipate a call for proposals that will build on the needs identified in the early work of this project. Examples of potential projects include:
- Develop prototypes of the concepts identified during our design workshops and open innovation challenge
- Research technology and security requirements needed to implement accessible design concepts
- Continue research or development of other promising voting systems and prototypes
These grants will focus on projects that
- Solve specific accessibility problems identified in our design phase;
- Can be integrated into existing voting systems; and/or
- Target disabilities which have received less focus in previous research, such as cognitive and age-related disabilities
