Get matched →The Collaborative Research program supports teams of scholars working on projects that lead to an interpretive product. Teams may propose research in a single field or interdisciplinary work. NEH encourages projects incorporating multiple points of view and new avenues of inquiry.
Projects must focus on the history and culture of the United States or Western civilization. Collaborators may come from one or more institutions. NEH encourages partnerships with researchers in natural and social sciences, but projects must focus on humanistic content and employ humanistic methods.
Proposed projects must lead to a tangible and sustainable output such as a coauthored book, edited volume, themed issue of a peer-reviewed journal, digital publication, or scholarly website. Outputs must incorporate collaboration and interpretation to address significant humanities research questions.
Planning International Collaboration projects have a maximum award amount of $50,000. International teams should consult NEH's International Opportunities page for information about possible sources of additional funding from external partners.
International collaboration is welcome, but scholars at U.S. institutions must contribute significantly to the project.
