Grants will be available to individual researchers (up to USD 20,000) and teams of researchers (up to USD 50,000) whose research focuses primarily on Arab societies.
Please note: priority will be given to researchers residing in the Arab region. Grants are intended to support a maximum timeline of 18 months, starting in April 2018 and ending in October 2019.
