30 September 2014: Irish Research Council announces funding for ‘Decade of Centenary’ projects
On 30 September 2014 the Irish Research Council announced details of its ‘New foundations’ scheme for 2014. The scheme is intended to support eligible researchers who intend to pursue research, networking and/or dissemination activities within and across a range of disciplines. The scheme will provide support for research actions, the development of networks, conference development, conference participation or attendance, creation of workshops and/or more general dissemination activities designed to communicate the outcomes and values of academic research in Ireland and beyond. One of the strands of the new scheme is to support activities designed specifically to contribute to the ‘Decade of Centenaries’ initiative.
