Publishing Aid from the Gerda Henkel Foundation helps bring especially successful Foundation-supported research into publication. It supports printing subsidies for monographs and edited volumes, or alternatively their Open Access publication costs. The aid is for publishing research results, rather than financing new research, and does not cover Open Access fees for individual articles.
The aid sits within the Foundation’s General Research Funding Programme, which focuses on the historical humanities: Archaeology, History, Historical Islamic Studies, Art History, History of Law, Prehistory and Early History, and History of Science. Work in neighbouring disciplines may qualify when its core research question is historically oriented.
