About the Project

We invite proposals on any aspect of Holocaust memory and representation. Projects might include but are not confined too investigations of Holocaust representation in particular national contexts; comparative studies of the representation of the Holocaust and other atrocities; critical investigations of the transnationality of Holocaust memory. Interdisciplinary proposals are particularly welcome – for example projects that combine Fine Art practice and historical evaluation.

Funding Notes

This project is being considered for funding in competition with other projects, through one of two types of funding packages available:
• Fully funded studentships include a full stipend, paid for three years at RCUK rates for 2017/18 (this is yet to be set, in 2016/17 this is £14,296 pa) and fees (Home/EU £4,350 / International £13,000 / International Lab-based £16,000), and are available to applicants worldwide.
• As Northumbria celebrates its 25th anniversary as a University and in line with our international outlook, some projects may also be offered to students from outside of the EU supported by a half-fee reduction.
