About this grant

The Horowitz Foundation gives small grants to doctoral students in the social sciences whose research bears on social policy, locally or globally. Trustees judge the whole application on significance, feasibility, originality, method and recommendations, with no single factor weighted most. You apply online with a 750-word project description, a CV and recommenders, all in English. Winners are announced in June, and grants go to individuals, not institutions.
