Introducing the Wenner-Gren Foundation: Support for Anthropology Worldwide, A Workshop co-sponsored by SOAS GLOCAL

The Wenner-Gren Foundation is now collaborating with the SOAS GLOCAL to host a series of webinars on funding opportunities for anthropologists and researchers in their respective disciplines. In this first workshop, join Danilyn Rutherford, the Foundation’s President, and her colleagues at the Foundation, for a discussion of the Wenner-Gren’s history, mission, and programs supporting anthropology and anthropologically oriented scholars, worldwide. Wenner-Gren provides support for individual and collaborative research projects, including engaged projects benefiting marginalized and minoritized communities. We also provide funding for meetings and capacity building projects of various kinds. In addition, we award fellowships to doctoral students from countries where advanced training in anthropology is less accessible, and to scholars bringing a writing or media project to completion. Danilyn will describe our grants and fellowships, offer some tips on applying for these grants and fellowships, and will then open the floor for questions. If you are a doctorate in anthropology or a related field, or a doctoral student pursuing your degree, Wenner-Gren can be a great source of support.
