卡内基伦理加速器项目与符合条件的团队（由两名或三名以上成员组成）合作，致力于解决技术与公共政策领域中新兴的伦理问题。项目应基于明确且简洁的研究问题，且该问题需具有深远的伦理影响。
以往的加速器项目主要关注：
入选队伍应具备：
- 在其研究领域具备可验证的专业知识
- 致力于开发基于伦理的成果，并具有现实应用前景
- 一个不断扩大的相关专业人士网络，他们对参加以该主题为内容的伦理加速器研讨会感兴趣。
- 在提案获批并获得资助后Carnegie Council 能够与Carnegie Council 密切合作Carnegie Council
提案将持续接受提交。若提案进入下一阶段评审，提交者将在提交后六十天内收到一封介绍性邮件，邀请其参与初步沟通电话会议，并进一步了解合作流程。
常见问题
在开始提交申请前，请仔细阅读加速器计划的实施方法及常见问题解答。所有提案均须通过本页下方表格提交。Carnegie Council 所有提案Carnegie Council 由加速器团队审阅，但无法保证对每份提案作出单独回复。
Your research proposal should outline a pressing ethical issue currently impacting international affairs, one that could be addressed or mitigated by a digital solution. The proposal does not need to detail a specific software or tool, but should include content that demonstrates a gap in digital resourcing where new approaches could meaningfully improve outcomes. Provide some preliminary thinking on what an output from the Accelerator project could attempt to accomplish and why now is the time to develop it.
To learn more about the issues underpinning Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affair’s work, visit our Initiatives & Issues Overview page.
Candidates should possess doctoral-level expertise, whether through a Ph.D. or equivalent applied experiences.
If a submission meets the criteria utilized by Carnegie Council's leadership team during its evaluation of the proposal, the Ethics Accelerator Lead will reach out to schedule a 30-minute discovery call. The discovery call is used for the submitter and the Ethics Accelerator team to align on expectations during both the funding and project periods.
If a proposal is selected, has pre-existing funding, or receives support from a Carnegie Ethics Accelerator funding partner, the lead researcher will join Carnegie Council’s network as a Non-Resident Fellow for the duration of the project.
There is no one-size-fits-all timeline for Ethics Accelerator projects as each project may require a different number of convenings, a different length of time to develop an applied output, a different amount of funding to run communications and promotional campaigns post-launch, and so on . . .
However, a typical project timeline could look like:
- 3 months spent preparing for the single or multi-day convening at Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs: preparing agendas and invitations lists, acquiring RSVPs, briefing agency partners, securing catering and hotels, and running the convenings themselves
- 9 to 12 months taking the wireframes developed during the convenings and turning them into a working prototype in collaboration with the Accelerator’s software development partner
- 3 months running promotional and communications campaigns targeting specific audiences, gathering feedback, and tracking performance
The timeline above assumes a fully funded project. If a research team is seeking funding, they will work with the Council’s Development Team and the Ethics Accelerator Lead to secure funding for the project in advance of the first 3-month preparation period.
Research teams for approved Accelerator projects will receive direct support from Council Staff in the planning, execution, and delivery of Accelerator convenings and public-facing outputs. This includes topic and convening invitee research, access to the Council's networks, convening planning, catering and staffing, workshop facilitation, notetaking and minutes delivery, software wireframing and development, and more. Each contributing member of a research team supported by a Carnegie Ethics Accelerator funding partner will receive $2,500.00 USD monthly for the duration of the project so long as each member is meeting the requirements of a signed Terms of Reference.
For any questions related to the Accelerator methodology, the contents of a high-quality proposal, or what the Council's Leadership team is looking for, please reach out to Samuel Bradshaw.
