Global Religion Research Initiative Funding

The Center for the Study of Religion and Society in the Department of Sociology at the University of Notre Dame announced its Global Religion Research Initiative (GRRI), directed by Christian Smith and funded by the Templeton Religion Trust of Nassau, Bahamas. The GRRI will fund over 150 research proposals by distributing $3.1 million to scholars of global religion between 2017 and 2021. This year, the GRRI offers three distinct competitive research and writing grants and fellowships programs available to scholars at all levels of their careers that intend to significantly advance the social scientific study of religions around the world. The GRRI will award dissertation fellowships, allow for international collaboration and facilitate project launch. The deadline to apply is November 18, 2019.
