Description
The American Philosophical Association (APA) Small Grant Fund provides modest annual grants for projects and initiatives beneficial to the philosophical community. Supported by the APA Eastern Division, the fund is part of the association’s support for work that advances that community. Applications are considered by the APA Board of Officers at its annual fall meeting.
The APA strongly prefers short-term seed funding to help new, innovative, and pilot projects get off the ground. Its priorities favor these efforts over long-term, repeat, or sustaining support for established projects, reflecting the association’s limited resources for ongoing funding. Funded projects must evaluate their progress against the goals and evaluation plan in their original proposal and publicly acknowledge APA support.
