We are pleased to share this Call for Applications from The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC-JOINT) Archives for its 2024 fellowship program.
Deadline for submission is January 30, 2024.
In 2024, three to six fellowships will be awarded to senior scholars, postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and independent researchers to conduct research in the JDC Archives. The fellowship awards are $2,500.
Finding aids can be consulted to identify relevant subject areas of research.
Fellows are expected to make a remote public presentation on their research upon conclusion of the fellowships and to provide the JDC Archives with a copy of their research outputs.
Past fellows have worked on diverse topics ranging from the travel experiences of American Jewish women between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of World War II to the origins and functions of the Intergovernmental Committee on European Migration (ICEM) in the 1950s and 1960s. The areas of research and lectures of previously awarded recipients can be viewed here.
