Deadline: 31 March 2015
Antipode Foundation Scholar-Activist Project Awards are intended to support collaborations between academics, non-academics and activists (from NGOs, think tanks, social movements, or community grassroots organisations, among other places) that further radical analyses of geographical issues and engender the development of a new and better society.
The Antipode Foundation promotes social scientific research, education and scholarship in the field of radical geography.
Maximum grants of up to £10,000 will be allocated under this award.
Focus Areas: Projects could take many forms including, but not limited to
- Collaborative research with artistic, community, cultural, grassroots, or social movement groups.
- The production of educational materials and other innovative pedagogical initiatives.
- The promotion of links between universities and institutions/organisations outside the academy.
Eligibility Criteria
- Anyone can apply for an Antipode Foundation Scholar-Activist Project Award (including academics and students, and activists of all kinds), but the grant must be held and administered by a host institution (these could be research, higher education or community-based institutions).
- Projects must take place within the year of award; in this case between 1 June 2015 and 31 May 2016.
- Those who have already received funding for a previous project are not eligible to apply for another.
- Events such as conferences, workshops, seminar series, summer schools and action research meetings are not covered by this award.
Application Procedure
- Application forms can be downloaded from the website and should be returned back to the Foundation’s Secretary, Andrew Kent via email.
- Applications will be considered by a panel of Trustees of the Antipode Foundation, and all applicants will be notified of the results in late May 2015.
