Research and Advocacy Program

Historically, CUAC has provided small grants for research, advocacy and capacity building projects on consumer utilities issues. Reports from these CUAC-funded projects, along with more information about the history of CUAC grants, can be found on the External Research page.

In 2012-13, CUAC will have some funding available to support community organisations, academics and others to undertake such projects.  All funded projects will need to align with CUAC’s constitutional objects and its annual work plan.

The CUAC Board is in the process of developing its Research & Advocacy Program approach for 2012-13, including the Program budget, application and approval processes, and research and advocacy priorities. Please check back for more detailed information, coming shortly. In the meantime, you are welcome to contact us for a preliminary discussion of your project idea.
