ONFERENCE AND WORKSHOP GRANTS Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research
Description: The Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research invites applications under its conferences and workshops grant program. Funding of up to US$20,000 per award is available to fund the following events to foster the creation of an international community of research scholars and advance significant and innovative anthropological research:
• conferences, defined as public events that are comprised primarily of oral and poster presentations to a larger audience of anthropologists. Priority is given to major conferences sponsored by large international anthropological organisations that serve as their annual or periodic meetings. The majority of the funds granted to such conferences are expected to be used towards expenses for international scholars who are making presentations at the conference and would not otherwise be able to attend;
• workshops, are defined as working meetings which focus on developing and debating topical issues in theoretical anthropology. Workshops involve a small group of scholars who meet for a sufficient period
of time to deal intensively with the topic. Priority is given to those workshops that devote the majority of time to discussion and debate rather than to the presentation of papers. It is expected that workshops will result in a publication.
Applications must be made by a professional anthropologist who is the primary organiser of the proposed conference or workshop. Closing date: 01 Jun 14 Deadline information: Deadlines on: 1 June 2014, 1 December 2014, and repeated annually.
