OeAD | Austrian Development Research Award 2025
The Austrian Development Research Award is presented every two years to academically active institutions and individuals who have made a special achievement in the field of development research (publications, projects and initiatives). The prize consists of a main prize and a young researchers' prize and is awarded by the Agency for Education and Internationalisation (OeAD) with funds from the Federal Ministry of Women, Science and Research (BMFWF).
Nominations for the main prize or articles for the young talent prize can be submitted until 30 November, 2025. Both awards - the main prize and the young researchers' prize - represent a contribution to the better visibility of development research; they serve to stimulate scientific discourse relevant to development as well as to anchor it in Austrian society and to scientifically address globally relevant topics of development research and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations. In order to do justice to the diversity of development research, a broad spectrum of topics is covered and the transdisciplinary or interdisciplinary character of research is emphasised.
