Conference funding - 31 Jan. 2010 deadline

The Society for Renaissance Studies has launched a new scheme for conference funding, in addition to our previous provision. We are now offering two grants of up to £1,500 each to support conferences or colloquia within the field of Renaissance Studies planned for calendar year 1 January 2011-31 December 2011 and held in the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland. These awards will not be made to individuals to attend conferences, but to the organizers of conferences to provide assistance with organizational support and/or the travel and subsistence costs of certain participants, including postgraduate students. The closing date for the receipt of applications to support conferences in 2011 is 31st January 2010 and further details, including application forms can be found at http://www.rensoc.org.uk/SRSFundingPage.html
