Description
Florida Humanities’ Environmental Humanities Program Grants support projects exploring how people interact with the environment and how it shapes their communities. Supported by the Mosaic Company, the program brings together scholarship, storytelling, and community participation to illuminate Florida’s diverse landscapes and environmental heritage. Projects should be collaborative and cross-disciplinary, helping the public reflect on environmental history, cultural connections to place, and the future of Florida’s communities.
Funding supports new or ongoing programming delivered in person, digitally, or virtually. Formats include lectures, community forums, reading groups, multimedia exhibitions, oral histories, film discussions, scholar-led tours, site interpretation, creative writing workshops, and media projects such as podcasts or short films. Projects must address a community’s environmental heritage or environmental issues of cultural significance and offer meaningful local, regional, or statewide public impact.
