This checklist: https://qualifyafrica.com/o/qog-institute-best-paper-award-2026
Built only from what the listing states. Lines marked (our advice) are ours.
The application takes real work, by our reading.

1. CHECK YOURSELF AGAINST WHAT THEY ASK
[ ] enrolled in a PhD or a postdoctoral researcher or above
[ ] a paper on a quality of government topic published or presented between September 2025 and September 2026

2. WHAT TO GET READY
The listing does not say what it needs. When you open their page, write down everything it asks for before you start.

3. DATES
- Closes 9 December 2026, in 48 days.
- Aim to send it by 6 December 2026. Websites slow down near a deadline, and data runs out. (our advice)

4. WHAT IT COSTS YOU
- Nothing to apply.

A job never asks you to pay to apply. A listing that charges shows the fee above, and it is paid only to the organisation. If anyone asks for money any other way, stop, and tell us: hello@qualifyafrica.com
