The Society for Irish Latin
American Studies is pleased to announce the launch of a new
edition of its grants programme, the Irish Latin American
Research Fund. The objective of the Irish Latin American
Research Fund is to support innovative and significant
research in the different aspects of relations between
Ireland and Latin America.
Grants up to 1,000 Euros will
be awarded to exceptionally promising students, faculty
members or independent scholars to help support their
research and writing leading to the publication or other
types of communication of their projects. Awards will be
selected on the basis of a well-developed research plan that
promises to make a significant contribution to a particular
area of study about the Irish and Latin America.
Three prestigious scholars will shortly be announced who will be responsible for assessing the research proposals and awarding grants to the best projects. The Irish Latin American Research Fund is open to faculty, advanced university students, and independent scholars throughout the world. Applicants from previous academic years who were not awarded a grant may apply again and submit the same project. Successful applicants must wait until two rounds of grants have passed before reapplying.
The programme receives no
institutional funding and its only financial source is
represented by membership fees and donations. These grants are possible
thanks to the generosity of SILAS members and friends.
