The National Endowment for the Humanities Collaborative Research Fellowship provides support of up to $40,000 for U.S. scholars conducting humanities research in any country of East-Central Europe and Eurasia. A wide range of humanities topics are eligible for support (see below); however, all projects must involve at least one collaborator from the region and field-based research in the region itself. In addition, applicants must hold a Ph.D. or other terminal degree and have a working knowledge of one or more of the languages of East-Central Europe or Eurasia, or be able to demonstrate that such language proficiency is not critical for the successful completion of their particular projects. Applications with a strong regional focus and the potential to strengthen academic linkages beyond the traditional centers are particularly encouraged.
