The hosting academic conference grants competition has reopened. These grants are for conferences between July 1, 2019 and June 30, 2020 and are for a focused academic mini-conference or to host regional, national, or international disciplinary meetings.
The goal of a mini-conference is to produce a significant scholarly work in terms of an edited book, monograph, or special edition of a journal or other creative output (script for a play, a play, a musical composition or recording, juried exhibit, etc.) that would not have been possible without the in-person conference.
The goal of hosting an academic conference could be the same, but would primarily be for increased visibility and reputation of the institution by serving as the host institution. The new due date is May 6, 2019.
