Description
The Mershon Center Co-Sponsorships at Ohio State University offer partial financial and collaborative support for programming hosted by other university units that aligns with the Center’s mission to advance research and dialogue on international, national, and human security. These grants are intended to foster interdisciplinary and collaborative events—such as conferences, workshops, public lectures, or symposia—organized by departments, centers, or other Ohio State units. The emphasis is on serving a broad constituency, encouraging multi-perspectival conversation, and integrating the Mershon Center’s community and expertise into the event. Support includes both funding and active involvement from Mershon staff and affiliates.
