> The British Academy announces 2007-08
> UK-Latin America and the Caribbean Links Programme
>
> In an initiative developed by the British Academy's Latin America
> and the Caribbean Panel, two awards of up to £20,000 each are
> available to support a programme of seminars involving UK and Latin
> American and Caribbean scholars on a topic of mutual interest
> within the humanities and social sciences. The Academy encourages
> applications that bring together scholars from a number of distinct
> institutions within the UK and across Latin America and the
> Caribbean. The seminar programme should encompass at least two
> seminars, one in the UK and one in Latin America or the Caribbean.
>
> Aim of the award
> The scheme is intended to encourage interaction between scholars
> from the UK and Latin America and/ or the Caribbean, bringing
> together key scholars working on a particular topic in order to
> foster new links and strengthen existing academic links between the
> regions.
>
> Scope of the award
> The grant is intended to provide a contribution towards the total
> costs of the seminars (event costs, travel and accommodation
> expenses for participants on both sides). The seminars are expected
> to be of relatively small scale: it is envisaged that the grant
> should cover the costs of about 5 international participants (and
> perhaps 10 local participants) for each event. The seminars should
> last approximately two to three days, with 2 or 3 international
> participants taking part in a one to two week programme around the
> seminars, intended to provide further teaching or training through
> additional lectures, seminars or workshops.
>
> Eligibility
> Applicants and participants incurring international travel costs
> must be scholars of postdoctoral or equivalent status (i.e.
> academic staff with at least one or two year’s of teaching/research
> experience). Postgraduate students are eligible for all other
> costs, such as travel and maintenance expenses within the UK or
> Latin America and the Caribbean.
>
> Level of Grant
> Grants are offered up to a maximum of £20,000 for a programme of 2
> seminars.
>
> Closing Date
> The closing date for applications is 16 February 2007. Decisions
> will be announced in mid-July.
