About this opportunity

The Immigration and Ethnic History Society (IEHS) invites submissions for awards, up to $2,000 each, to support graduate students and early-career scholars seeking to develop or engage with digital history work connected to migration history and related fields. The IEHS aims to support projects that explore how digital history can be a transformative tool in researching, teaching, and making migration history more accessible to scholars and the public. Priority will be given to projects introducing innovative digital methods, tools, or technologies that demonstrate feasibility, usefulness to the scholarly community, and potential for broader public engagement. The primary goal of these grants is to help incubate promising projects, providing recipients with resources to demonstrate proof of concept and prepare them for pursuing additional funding and development opportunities.
