International Collaborative Research Grants
Deadline: June 1, 2007
The International Collaborative Research Grant (ICRG) supports international
research collaborations between two or more qualified scholars, where the
principal investigators bring different and complementary perspectives,
knowledge, and/or skills to the project. Supplemental funds are also
available to provide essential training for academic research participants
in ICRG-funded projects (co-applicants, students, as well as other
professional colleagues). By encouraging international collaborations, the
grant contributes to the development of an international anthropology that
values and incorporates different national perspectives and resources. By
providing training funds, the grant helps to build capacity in countries
were anthropology may be under-resourced.
The grants are for a maximum of $30,000 for the research project. Proposals
which include the optional training element can have an increased funding
request up to a maximum of $35,000, of which no more than $10,000 can be for
essential training purposes. Under special circumstances grants can be
renewed to support longer-term research projects. Principal Investigators
must hold a doctorate or equivalent in anthropology or a related discipline.
The International Collaborative Research Grant program has a two-stage
application process. The first stage is the preliminary inquiry, which
should be made one month before the application deadlines of June 1 and
December 1. The June 1 deadline is for applicants requesting funding
starting in January through June of the following year. The December 1
deadline is for applicants requesting funding starting in July through
December of the following year.
If an application is considered eligible based on the review of the
preliminary inquiry, the applicant will be invited to submit a full
application. Final decisions are made six months after the application
deadlines.
