The Society for Libyan Studies: Grant Applications

The Society makes occasional grants in aid of research on Libyan topics. These are limited to travel bursaries or small pump-priming grants only, up to a maximum of £2500.  Applications for travel bursaries or small grants must be submitted on a standard application form, accompanied by two references from referees who are not from the applicant’s institution, each on a separate reference form.

The completed application form should be returned to the General Secretary, if possible by 1 April for consideration at the Council Meeting in May. However, funds permitting, applications may also be considered at other Council meetings, for which the deadlines for returning forms are 1 January, 1 September, and 1 November.

References should be sent direct from the referees to reach the General Secretary by the same date.

The Society supports a limited number of projects which Council has identified as core strategic research projects for the Society. Proposals for fieldwork on such projects, and their associated post-fieldwork costs, which must have been previously discussed with the Society’s Officers, should be submitted to the Society’s Fieldwork Committee.

Other projects not identified as core Society research may be eligible for research funding from the British Academy.
