Prize for Research
A prize of $2,500 will be awarded for the most promising dissertation involving field research in Central Asia, a region broadly defined to include Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Kirghizia, Mongolia, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and culturally related contiguous areas of Iran, Pakistan, Kazakhstan and China. Only candidates who receive a dissertation research fellowship from an SSRC/ACLS program will be eligible to apply. The prize is intended to enrich the individual's field experience by making possible a longer stay or more extensive travel within the region. - Eastern Europe
This grant is intended to support research undertaken outside Eastern Europe, although short visits to the area may be proposed as part of a coherent program primarily undertaken elsewhere. - Eurasia
The Eurasia Fellowship covers Eastern Europe, the Russian Empire and the successor states of the former Soviet Union. It offers fellowships for individual and institutional awards.
