- For 2026 the programme is invitation-only — The Jensen Project states it is reinvesting in existing partnerships and is not running an open application. Organisations must serve adult female sex trafficking survivors and align with current priorities of housing, economic empowerment, or proprietary technology advancing the field. A university cannot apply; the researcher's route is as an evaluation or learning partner to an invited grantee.
