Description
The Nomura Foundation funds the costs of holding lectures, symposia, and similar events. Eligible topics include social sciences centered on law, political science, and economics, as well as the theme of “realizing a society in which women can shine.” The grant supports convening an event rather than conducting a separate research project.
This program is part of the foundation’s social science funding activities, alongside research and international exchange grants. Events held overseas may be proposed. The foundation accepts applications from individuals and from groups led by an eligible researcher.
