Opportunity Information: Apply for 20191015 AV
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), through its Division of Education Programs, offered the "Dialogues on the Experience of War" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 20191015) to support public-facing humanities programming focused on war and military service. This program sits within NEH's broader initiative, "Standing Together: The Humanities and the Experience of War," and is built around a straightforward idea: reading, studying, and discussing key humanities sources (such as literature, philosophy, history, and related cultural texts) can give veterans and others richer ways to process and talk about what war means, how military service shapes individuals and communities, and how societies remember and interpret conflict over time.
The grant is designed primarily to reach U.S. military veterans, but participation is not limited to veterans alone. Projects are also meant to welcome active-duty service members, military families, and members of the general public who want to engage seriously with the human questions that war raises. In practice, the program is about creating structured "dialogues" - guided discussions anchored in thoughtfully selected humanities materials - that encourage reflection, shared understanding, and deeper civic conversation across military and civilian experiences.
This is a discretionary grant program in the humanities (CFDA 45.163). Eligible applicants include a wide range of organizations and government entities: state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category). That eligibility range indicates NEH intended the program to be implementable by universities and colleges as well as community-based nonprofits, libraries or local cultural organizations working under government umbrellas, and tribal governments, all of which may already have strong connections to veteran communities or public humanities audiences.
In terms of funding scale and competitiveness, the opportunity listed an award ceiling of $100,000 and anticipated making about 15 awards. The notice was created on July 16, 2019, with an original application closing date of October 15, 2019. Overall, the funding supports the development and delivery of humanities-centered discussion programs that use foundational texts and ideas to help participants grapple with the moral, psychological, historical, and cultural dimensions of war, while also building conversation and understanding between those with direct military experience and the broader public.Apply for 20191015 AV
