The Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women has launched a new seed grant program for transnational research initiatives that involve faculty from the humanities, social sciences, creative arts, health sciences, and science and technology studies. The funding, up to $10,000 per project, will go toward research that incorporates intersecting dimensions of difference, such as gender, sexuality, generation, work, class, race, ethnicity, language, citizenship, and religion, into broader research agendas and involves collaborating faculty from different fields. Pembroke Center grants may be used for a mix of workgroups, symposia, and performances for collaborative exchange, visiting scholars, lectures, student research assistantships, small research stipends for the lead faculty organizer, and publication support. Groups must be anchored at Brown but may include outside researchers. Preference will be given to projects that involve faculty across academic divisions. The new seed grant program is made possible through the Center’s Pembroke Challenge, which raised $1,504,265 to endow new research initiatives. Grant applications are due Nov. 12, 2012; recipients will be announced in December.
