Programs
CHCI supports a wide array of initiatives, including multiyear, international collaborative research projects, global institutes and workshops, and fellowships for scholars at member institutions.
Global Humanities Institutes
With the support of a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, CHCI launched, in 2017, the Global Humanities Institutes (GHIs), a program for a second generation of international collaboration. Since then, CHCI has funded five different projects on a broad range of themes, involving more than 25 centers and 200 participants from all continents.
Membership Activity Fund
CHCI is proud to continue offering the Membership Activity Fund, a small grant opportunity for CHCI members to fund inclusive collaborations in the humanities as well as activities with outcomes that benefit our membership. The next deadline is October 7, 2024.
Africa Humanities Workshops
Intensive, out-of-term schools workshops devoted to research, collaboration, and training primarily for early-career scholars from across the African Continent, the Africa Humanities Workshops will fit into CHCI’s broader agenda to foster global scholarly exchange in the humanities, and exchange that has a transformative effect on our understanding and practice of the humanities.
African Humanities Map
CHCI’s mapping of the humanities in Africa is designed to help the organization better understand where and how institutions and centers of humanities research and training exist on the African Continent. This research will help CHCI to foster and support cross-continental and global humanities networks that amplify local and regional projects, and reflect the practical and conceptual possibilities of the humanities center model.
CCKF-CHCI Summer Institutes
The Consortium of Humanities Centers and Institutes and the Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for International Scholarly Exchange have partnered to support annual summer institutes for young scholars on the general topic of “Chinese Studies and Global Humanities.”
