The Gerda Henkel Foundation and European Commission launch the second round of their M4HUMAN programme
Scholars planning a longer research stay abroad have until 15 June 2012 to apply to the Gerda Henkel Foundation for a Marie Curie Fellowship. In the context of its “M4HUMAN” programme (“Mobility for experienced researchers in historical humanities and Islamic studies”), the Foundation’s Office welcomes applications detailing research plans in the field of the historical humanities or on a topic within the special research programme “Islam, the modern nation state and transnational movements” supported by the Gerda Henkel Foundation. This is a joint initiative of the Gerda Henkel Foundation and European Commission. Following a successful start last year, when some 40 applicants from 17 countries were accepted into the programme, the sponsoring partners are now offering additional funding for up to 60 fellowships.
