Description
This program funds collaborative Working Groups formed by faculty and academic staff from Central New York Humanities Corridor–affiliated institutions. The grant supports a wide range of activities—such as research collaborations, writing retreats, manuscript workshops, interdisciplinary initiatives, curriculum development, community engagement, and public events—that enhance the scholarly impact of the humanities in the region. Groups select a research cluster and design activities that foster sustained, innovative, and reciprocal collaboration across institutions.
