Overview
Outreach and Event Grant
The Outreach and Event Grant is designed to encourage DHS members to convene an event to highlight and promote the field of design history. We invite our members to organise workshops, seminars, lectures, or any event that promotes the field.
Decolonising Design History Grant
This award has been created to recognise and support ground-breaking research and projects that actively contribute to the decolonisation of design history. We especially encourage applications from researchers and students from the Global Majority, those who are first-generation university entrants, those with disabilities and other marginalised communities and those whose work foregrounds, diverse perspectives and under-represented narratives within design history.
Virtual Event Grant
The Virtual Event Grant facilitates interaction, debate, and research activity in design history through virtual initiatives proposed by researchers. It represents the Society’s commitment to promoting and to supporting access to the field of design history, encouraging transnational dialogue with less negative impact on the environment.
Research Access Grant (Student and Academics)
The Research Access Grant is awarded by the DHS annually to assist students and academics who need to travel to conduct essential research for their design history scholarship.
Research Publication Grant
The Research Publication Grant is awarded by the DHS annually to assist those engaged in design history research with the publication of their research in research-based outputs, such as peer-reviewed journal articles or books published by an academic press or museum institution.
