We are pleased to announce that we are accepting applications for our new small grant program! As part of our Humboldt grant, we are having a round of small grants for our members that can be used for direct research expenses (radiocarbon dating, fieldwork), open access fees for publications in open access journals, and conference attendance or support for continuing education.
Applications are accepted from June 15-July 30. We will let the applicants know the outcomes by the end of August and if you receive a grant, you will need to spend it by June 2024. Our restrictions? You must be a Steppe Sister, and be happy for us to share your photo, name and project here on our website and across social media. You can apply and read more about the program here: https://forms.gle/D5wN29KoM4igJx4f6
