Dear colleagues,

Data2X is pleased to announce a *Big Data for Gender Challenge.* Through
this Challenge, we seek to catalyze innovative solutions to fill global
gender data gaps on the well-being of women and girls.

Applicants may submit proposals for prizes of $100,000 or $50,000. Current
doctoral students may apply for a $25,000 dissertation grant.

Research proposals will be accepted in two categories:

1) Projects using a combination of digital and conventional data sources to
conduct gender analysis on a specific research question.

2) Projects that build practical tools to monitor the well-being of women
and girls over time.

Project concept notes *not exceeding 5 pages in length* (excluding any
supplementary materials) should be submitted by *July 7, 2017.*

Our report, Big Data and the Well-Being of Women and Girls
