PEDL is a joint research initiative of CEPR and FCDO
Summary: 
PEDL offers a competitive research grants scheme for projects related to the behaviour of firms in low-income countries that aim to better understand what determines the strength of market forces driving efficiency in these countries. Since the launch of the initiative in 2011, PEDL has awarded 259 Exploratory Grants and 51 Major Grants. PEDL-funded projects have produced 133 refereed journal publications, including 29 in the top five journals in economics. We expect the flow of publications to increase as more of the 183 working papers from existing projects make their way through the publication process.
