- Data, measurement, and conceptual framing;
- Firms, frictions and spillovers, and industrial policy;
- Labour, home production, and structural transformation at the level of households;
- Agricultural productivity and sectoral gaps;
- Trade and spatial frictions;
- Political economy and public investment.

Grants can be between £10,000 and £25,000.
Eliigibility:

demonstrate a history of high-quality academic and/or policy-relevant research. - Although there are no formal qualification requirements for co-investigators, coinvestigators on STEG-funded projects usually have a PhD or are enrolled in a PhD
programme. - The knowledge, expertise, and qualifications of the entire research team will be taken into
account when evaluating the proposal.
