[Clone] Humanities Seed Grants

Stanford Public Humanities seeks proposals for its newest round of Humanities Seed Grants. These grants support innovative and public-oriented faculty research in the humanities—including work by scholars in allied fields like the qualitative social sciences, education, and law.

In keeping with Stanford’s university-wide focus on helping students and the public at large reimagine the human future, Public Humanities is seeking to fund projects that do one or more of the following:

• Collaborate to build new intellectual networks, answer new questions, or reach across existing fields to bring humanistic skills to bear on pressing social and environmental questions
• Engage with students and the wider community, whether local, national, or international
• Magnify impact within and beyond particular scholarly fields through either the scale and scope of questions posed or the research design and methodology
• Offer channels  of research dissemination beyond the traditional scholarly monograph: Exhibitions or public installations; a series of talks or events at festivals, libraries and other public venues; a series of articles in major magazines or newspapers; public-facing websites, open databases, or podcasts
