Dear Colleagues,

The Smithsonian Recovering Voices 2020 Community Research Program Call for Proposals closes this Sunday September 1, 2019.

This Call for Proposals will support multiple research projects to the Smithsonian collections and archives between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020. The open period for proposal submissions runs June 15 to September 1, 2019. Note that this deadline is different from years past.

The purpose of the Community Research Program is to support indigenous communities in their efforts to save, document, and enliven their languages, cultures, and knowledge systems. The Program supports groups of community scholars from around the world to come to the Smithsonian to examine specific objects, specimens, and documents related to their heritage and to engage in a dialogue with Smithsonian collections and archives staff in order to recover and revitalize their language and knowledge.

The application guidelines and materials are available on the Recovering Voices website and blog.  Please distribute widely.
