This diversity of professional interests are reflected in the selection of projects for peer review and award.

General Rules and Procedures

 

  • All applications submitted to the Academy are independently peer reviewed. The review process is blinded so that the identities of both the reviewers and applicants are kept very confidential. Specific instructions on the application process are provided with each call for proposal.
  • As the main objective of the Academy is to promote research and education to eligible candidates who have the potential of becoming leading academics and researchers in their fields, any individual from any institution in the world or an independent researcher who wish to enter into academic work are eligible to apply for awards.
  • All grant recipients for any of the Academy's awards or funds are referred to as “Fellowsâ€Â in the contract of Awards, as they would remain Fellows of the Academy throughout the duration of the awards.
  • As the grants awarded to Fellows are for their sole benefits in enriching their research and educational activities, all fellows are also refereed to as beneficiaries of the awards.
  • The Fellows of the academy are required to provide honest reports on the state on their awards in their various institutions
  • All queries arising from JIARE grants and awards are first discussed in the appropriate Committee. Depending on the nature of the enquiry, it would be referred to either the Policy or Quality Department or the Legal Department to deal.
  • Payments of grants and awards can be on the production of invoices from the host institutions or from grants recipients usually referred to as Fellows, but with institutions for payment to be made to the host institution, where the grant is administered. Payments therefore are made on the Institution name, not on the individual's name.
  • Only items with full cost within the budget of each grant can be paid for. Over charging of items by institutions can lead to delay in payments. Grants recipients are expected to complete their projects at the agreed times. However, extensions can be granted in exceptional cases. In this circumstance, each case is treated on individual basis.

JIARE has full international Panel of Assessors who help in the review and advice of the submitted grant and award applications. Appointment of Assessors and Reviewers are subject to individuals meeting set criteria, and depending on their qualifications, experience and standing in their chosen subjects.
