British Academy Conferences scheme

Notify Faculty of Intention to apply by: 8 January 2025

Funder deadline: 29 January 2025

The British Academy offers up up £20,000 support for scholars to host one or two-day conferences that will take place either at the British Academy’s own premises in London, or at other British venues or online between 1 April 2026 and 31 March 2027. Proposals should be interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary, and the award is open to postdoctoral scholars at any level (Lecturer, Professor, etc).  

Conferences on health and wellbeing that fall under the scope of the the British Academy / Wellcome Trust scheme can have an upper limit to awards of up to £25,000.

Many awards will be made at a lower level, with sums in the region of £10,000-£15,000 likely. The awarding committee will aim to offer sums to make viable each conference that it selects for support, but in some instances, it may offer less than was sought.
