The Iran Heritage Foundation aims to foster knowledge and appreciation of Iran’s cultural heritage by awarding grants of up to £3,000. They will consider only those applications that are complete, refereed, and innovative. Applications must include an up to date CV, clearly defined outcomes and outputs, and fully detailed, itemised budgets (applicants are encouraged to give details about the websites from which the prices they quote were derived, like booking.com, and to justify the per diem amount in their budgets). It would be good to see evidence that applicants have actually checked the prices for hotels, flights and other sorts of travel. The research project must be fully developed, with a timeline; a detailed outline of up to 1000 words is recommended. Applicants should define explicitly the research questions that apply to the project that they have chosen, making them clear to a non-specialist audience, outlining their research methodologies and showing how their research relates to existing scholarship.
Application deadline: 31 October 2025
