Are you a Europe-based professional working with Jewish heritage within an institution?
Do you want to attend a conference, seminar or specialist training course that would help you with your work? Improve your working knowledge of Hebrew or any other Jewish language relevant to your role? Make a research trip or visit another European archive, library or museum to learn from colleagues?
You may be eligible for a Professional Development Grant from the Rothschild Foundation Hanadiv Europe.
Funding for individuals is available to Jewish heritage professionals (archivists, librarians, conservators, curators, educators, cataloguers, etc) who work professionally in a museum, archive, library or other heritage organisation with a significant Jewish collection.
The work may be part-time but should constitute at least 16 hours per week. They must be based in a European country and have at least 6 months of experience working professionally in the field of Jewish heritage.
For organisations making an application, their activities must be deemed charitable under UK charity law. This includes organisations which are either not-for-profit or publicly funded e.g., state or private libraries, archives, museums, research institutes, or universities.
These grants are available at two month intervals on a rolling basis throughout the year.
Grant categories include:
- Conferences, Seminars, and Courses
- Professional Language Courses
- Expert/Consultant Visits
- Site Visits
- Professional Training
Submission deadlines are October 31, 2024; December 31, 2024; February 28, 2025; and April 30, 2025 — with decisions made two weeks later.
