Description
This program funds collaborative humanities research projects involving two or more scholars. Projects may focus on a single field or cross disciplinary boundaries, and should aim to produce a tangible interpretive product—such as a co-authored book, an edited volume, or a themed issue of a peer-reviewed journal. The program supports both the planning of new international collaborations and the preparation of manuscripts for publication. Projects must address significant research questions in the humanities and demonstrate meaningful collaboration among team members.
