Notice Information

Notice Title

Provision of On-Line Research - Understanding The Impact And Effectiveness of Counter Narratives

Notice Description

The Home Office is seeking to fund a number of small innovative research projects (preferably ranging from PS20k - PS50k) in order to measure the impact and effectiveness of both formal and informal counter narratives, as well as determine the best methods to deliver these. Specifically we aim to establish a stronger evidence base on the most effective ways to deliver counter narrative content in the online information environment. The findings will help to inform approaches that lead to demonstrable attitude and behavioural change, as well as identify the most effective delivery mechanism. It is expected that projects will need to be completed by the end of January 2018, and that final reports will be delivered by 15th February 2018. We are keen for research proposals to be innovative and novel; however we will also consider research projects that employ more traditional methodologies (e.g. surveys or interviews). Responses to this Invitation To Tender will be evaluated by Home Office research and policy officials and Commercial Directorate. Further details can be found within the attached tender documentation.
