Humanities Initiatives
Funding Agency:
- National Endowment for the Humanities
Humanities Initiatives grants can help strengthen the teaching and study of the humanities at colleges and universities by supporting the development of new or enhancement of existing programs, educational resources, or courses that explore, interpret, and preserve the diversity of human cultures, ideas, and practices, past and present.
Past recipients have launched a committee on manuscript, rare book, and archive studies; revised their curriculum through a week-long faculty study group examining place; and created an interactive map and database that highlights diverse regional histories and will be used in several courses.
By supporting projects like these, Humanities Initiatives at Colleges and Universities grants can help institutions better serve current students and position themselves to build on success for the future.
NEH welcomes applications for projects that are modest in scope, duration, and budget, as well as applications for expansive, long-term projects.
