Funding Opportunities

Open Access Funding

Application deadline: None, applications are accepted on an ongoing basis until all awards have been granted.

Timely access to quality evidence is a key component of knowledge translation. We believe that providing free and open access to gambling research published in scholarly journal articles will remove barriers to access and allow a larger audience to benefit from existing evidence. To encourage the development of new evidence, we offer support to those planning on publishing open access research.

Funding for this initiative is derived from regulatory settlements for socially responsible purposes that are approved by the United Kingdom (UK) Gambling Commission. Therefore, to access these funds, authors or research groups must be affiliated with a UK institution. Individuals may be awarded this funding only once per calendar year (based on the manuscript acceptance date). Priority for this funding will be given to:

• Meta-analyses, systematic reviews of literature, and scoping reviews
• Secondary data analyses using datasets listed in the Greo's Evidence Centre
• Manuscripts that directly address gambling harm reduction
• Manuscripts that include policy implications for harm prevention, reduction, and/or mitigation
• Researchers who are based in the UK
