Call for Applications: EMKP 2023/2024 Grant

By October 27, 2023No Comments

 The Endangered Material Knowledge Programme (EMKP) gives grants to support the documentation and digitisation of material knowledge systems that are under threat and in danger of disappearing. The programme was established in 2018 with funding from Arcadia – a charitable foundation that works to protect nature, preserve cultural heritage, and promote open access to knowledge – and is hosted by the Department of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas at the British Museum.

 The EMKP offers three different grants schemes: Small Documentation, Large Documentation, and Legacy Digitisation. Documentation grants provide funding to document living material knowledge systems and practices in danger of disappearing. Small Documentation Grants can be up to 12 months with a maximum award of £20,000. Large Documentation Grants can be up to 24 months with a maximum award of £100,000.

 Legacy Digitisation Grant, used to digitise collections or materials relating to endangered material knowledge, can be up to 12 months with a maximum aware of £20,000, and can be applied for separately or together with a documentation grant.

The deadline for all applications is at midnight on 7th January 2024.
