SUMMARY:Deadline - MDS Call for Event Funding
DESCRIPTION:Migration and Diaspora Studies Call for Event Funding 



Deadline: Monday, April 4, 2016



Migration & Diaspora Studies offers two types of awards differentiated by their monetary value:



Awards under $1,000 to support low-cost activities such as bringing in a speaker from outside the university. There is no deadline for applications for funding under $1,000. 



Awards over $1,000 to support higher-cost activities such as seminars, conferences, lecture series, performances, readings, and exhibitions. The value of these awards will not exceed $10,000 and the expectation is that most awards in this category will be no more than $5,000. The next deadline for higher-cost event funding proposals is April 4, 2016. Applicants who wish to secure notice of matching funds in advance of April 2015 may submit earlier applications, and specify the date by which they intend to secure matching funds in advance of applications to SSHRC or other research funding agencies.



Purpose of the funding



MDS welcomes applications that support events and activities such as conferences, seminars, talks, short films, and artistic installations that will:



- Facilitate discussion and dialogue amongst members of Carleton’s MDS community.
- Provide intellectual benefits to the interdisciplinary and diverse MDS community.
- Raise the profile of the Migration & Diaspora studies initiative at Carleton, and with national and international communities of scholars and outside partners.



We welcome applications from any discipline, and especially encourage applications for interdisciplinary activities, but please note that these funds are not intended for individual research projects.



Who can apply?



Applicants must be affiliated with Carleton University either as faculty, adjunct faculty, or graduate students.



How to apply?



Your application should include an itemized budget, a short proposal outlining the project, and a completed application form available here. Questions about the application process should be directed to Daniel McNeil.
