The Global Centre for Public Service Excellence (UNDP) offers travel grants for scholars on certain topics

The Global Centre for Public Service Excellence (GCPSE) is one of six Global Policy Centres of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) which contribute to UNDP’s global development policy advisory functions, shape global thought leadership by providing evidence-based support and undertake development analytics for the global positioning of the organization and articulation of UNDP's discourse in global development processes. The Global Policy Centres provide research support and leverage partnerships to support better use of the organization’s funding for emerging priorities and innovation. GCPSE acts as a knowledge and convening hub on public service excellence, promoting cutting edge practices in public management and administrative reforms.
