The continuing advancement of scholarship is a pillar of the Kennan Institute’s mission. The Kennan Institute has long supported the work of scholars-in-residence and alumni by funding specific research projects and scholarly events. It now is establishing a specific category of grant awards available exclusively to Kennan alumni to support continuing research, publications, conferences, and other policy relevant scholarly work.
Kennan alumni include any scholar who has previously been in residence at the Kennan Institute for a period of one month or longer. All former Woodrow Wilson Fellows and other Wilson Center scholars who have been affiliated with the Kennan Institute during their time at the Center also are eligible to apply.
Grants may be sought to continue work previously conducted while in residence at the Kennan Institute or to pursue new projects. Grants will not be awarded to support merely attending or speaking at conferences.
