The British Institute for the Study of Iraq (formerly the British School of Archaeology in Iraq) (BISI) promotes, supports and undertakes research on Iraq and neighbouring countries. Its academic coverage includes anthropology, archaeology, geography, history, language and related disciplines within the arts, humanities, and social sciences from the earliest times until the present.
Development Grants
Grants are available to support development events and projects, such as lectures, study days and popular publications, that relate to Iraq and neighbouring countries and to the areas of interest covered by BISI. A Development Grant will normally be for an amount up to £500, although more substantial grants may be made if merited.
BISI considers applications for Development Grants twice yearly. The deadlines for applications and references are 15 April and 15 October. BISI will let applicants know the decision concerning their application by early July or early January respectively.
Research and Conference Grants
The Institute invites funding applications twice a year for grants in aid of research or for the organisation of academic conferences. All applications and references must be received by 31 January or 31 October in any given year. Awards will normally fall within a limit of £4,000, though more substantial awards may be made.
Applicants must be residents of the UK or, exceptionally, other individuals whose academic research closely coincides with that of the BISI.
