Call for Research Project Proposals 2022

In 2018 the Hellenic Observatory launched an exciting research initiative to further fulfil and develop its mission and study of contemporary Greece in the field of the social sciences. The programme became possible due to new funding granted for the specific purpose of furthering the Hellenic Observatory’s research agenda. The Hellenic Observatory would like to acknowledge grateful and sincere thanks to the A.C. Laskaridis Charitable Foundation (ACLCF) and Dr Vassili G. Apostolopoulos for the provision of funding for this purpose. 

Research Themes & Level of Awards

The LSE’s Hellenic Observatory (HO) is pleased to announce a new round of research project funding. In line with the HO’s mission to promote high-quality social science research on contemporary Greece, this round of the scheme will fund up to three projects on three Research Themes (see below).  Under each of these themes, applicants may submit proposals lasting 24 months (with a budget of up to GBP£20,000) or 12 months (with a budget of up to GBP£8,000).  The HO reserves the right to adjust the length and level of any award.

The Hellenic Observatory would like to acknowledge grateful and sincere thanks to the A.C. Laskaridis Charitable Foundation (ACLCF) and Dr Vassili G. Apostolopoulos for the provision of funding for this Research Call. 

Applications are invited for projects that address one of the following Themes:

The Call is open to researchers with a university affiliation, who hold a doctorate (PhD degree) and normally have at least two years of post-doctoral research experience. This criterion does not apply to the research assistants appointed to the project.

Applications from groups of researchers are also eligible. The PI and lead members must fulfil the eligibility criteria.

Applicants who have previously been awarded funding from the Hellenic Observatory’s research calls cannot reapply in the same academic year that the previous project finished.

Applications are limited to one application per person/group each year.
