Opportunity Information: Apply for 20240925 RFW
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), through its Division of Research Programs, is offering the Archaeological and Ethnographic Field Research grant (Funding Opportunity Number 20240925 RFW). This is a discretionary grant program in the humanities (CFDA 45.161) designed to fund empirical, field-based research projects in the United States or abroad that use archaeological and/or ethnographic methods to address significant humanities questions. In practical terms, NEH is looking to support projects where the core research depends on collecting evidence in the field and where that evidence is used to make a meaningful contribution to humanistic knowledge, interpretation, and understanding.
The funding is aimed specifically at covering fieldwork-related expenses that are often difficult to support through other sources. Allowable support highlighted in the opportunity includes travel and accommodation necessary to carry out field research, paying field staff, obtaining or renting equipment needed for data collection, and providing salary replacement for the project director and collaborating scholars so they can devote time to the research. The emphasis on salary replacement signals that NEH recognizes the time-intensive nature of sustained field research and is willing to help buy out time from other duties when that time is essential to completing the project.
A wide range of organizations are eligible to apply. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township, and special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions). Applicants should consult the Notice of Funding Opportunity, particularly the eligibility section referenced in the description, for any additional conditions, restrictions, or documentation requirements that may apply to specific entity types or project situations.
The opportunity has an original application closing date of September 25, 2024. NEH lists an award ceiling of $150,000, with an expected six awards, indicating a competitive program with a limited number of grants. Taken together, the program is best suited for well-defined archaeological and ethnographic field projects that can clearly articulate the humanities significance of the research questions, explain why field methods are necessary to answer them, and present a feasible plan and budget that align closely with fieldwork needs.Apply for 20240925 RFW
