[Commlist] Call for EADH Small Grants - European Association for Digital Humanities

*Call for EADH Small Grants*


EADH members are invited to apply for financial support for initiatives 
coherent with the scope of EADH's activities, as stated in the Article 2 
of our Constitution:

/The objectives of the Association are to promote the advancement of 
education in the digital humanities, through the development and use of 
computational methods in research and teaching in the Humanities and 
related educational disciplines./

The next deadline for submitting a proposal is *September 30 
<x-apple-data-detectors://0>* and a maximum of five grants of *1000 
Euros* each will be awarded during this call.

To submit a proposal, please send your application to (grants /at/ eadh.org) 
<mailto:(grants /at/ eadh.org)>. The results will be communicated to the 
participants and publicly announced by November 15. 
<x-apple-data-detectors://3>

*Who can apply?*

*
*

The call is open to all disciplines in the Humanities. Early-career 
researchers (from graduate students to postdoctoral researchers up to 
and including the fifth year after completion of the PhD) are encouraged 
to apply. Applications must come from intended beneficiaries directly – 
it is not possible to redistribute the grants (for example in the form 
of bursary schemes) to other recipients under the terms of this call. 
The applicant must be an EADH member at the time of sending the 
application (How to become a member <https://eadh.org/membership>).

*What are EADH Small Grants for? *

*
*

EADH Small Grants might cover:

  * research time for an ongoing project;
  * research time to start a new project;
  * research time to finalize a project;
  * organization of an event;
  * travels to work collaboratively;
  * purchase of equipment for a specific project.

*How to apply?*

*
*

Please submit:

  * A proposal (1000 to 1500 words excluding bibliography), including
    the state of the art of the appropriate field, the methodology and
    the goals you want to achieve. A detailed timeline should be
    included; please note that the goals should be achieved within one
    year from the public announcement.
  * An itemized budget breakdown, for up to 1000 € per grant.
  * A CV from the person applying for the grant evidencing experience,
    skills, and knowledge relevant to the field of the proposed project.

*Which are the evaluation criteria?*

*
*

Each proposal will be evaluated by at least three EADH Executive 
Committee members; the evaluators have the possibility to request the 
/pro veritate/ opinion of an external expert.

Proposals will be evaluated based on the following criteria:

  * completeness of application (note that due to the expected volume of
    applications, incomplete applications will be immediately rejected)
  * scientific soundness of application (methodology, clarity, 
feasibility);
  * applicant's CV
  * career stage of the applicant (note that priority will be given to
    early-career researchers) ;
  * access of the applicant to other funding (e.g. working in a big
    project or not).

*What happens if you obtain a grant?*

*
*

EADH Small Grants holders are requested to sign an agreement with EADH, 
where they commit to accomplish their proposal within one year from the 
public announcement and to submit a report at the end of this period. 
The report (1000 to 1500 words) should address the goals listed in the 
original proposals as well as present its scientific outcomes; in case 
an event has been sponsored or equipment purchased, original receipts 
should be attached and itemized. The report will be published on the 
EADH website. EADH support must be acknowledged on scientific products 
co-financed through this scheme, in an Acknowledgments section and/or 
using a logo. EADH commits to pay the grant after goals achievement, 
when the report is submitted. The entire sum may be paid upfront in case 
the nature of the project requires it (for example, presenting 
supplier's quotes). EADH Small Grants holders will not be able to 
participate in future calls for three years.
