!!Submissions to Public Humanities Award for Leadership in Practice and Community

__Public Humanities Award for Leadership in Practice and Community__
\\ \\
The Public Humanities Network of the CHCI represents a global community of centers and institutes engaged in building research through partnership. The public humanities are a diverse and growing field of inquiry, distributed across many kinds of communities. The Public Humanities Network would like to recognize and celebrate examples of this work by an annual award for leadership in practice and community. The award will be made to the nominating center or institute on behalf of the project they submit.
\\ \\
__Eligibility__
\\ \\
Center and institute directors who are members of the CHCI may nominate a project they would like to be considered for this award by a subcommittee of active members of the network, the membership of which will be renewed each year.
\\ \\
Nominated projects must include one partner who is a current member of the CHCI. The nominated project need not have the relevant center or institute director as the individual who submits the proposal in the event that the nominated project is led by a different faculty or staff member.
\\ \\
__Criteria__
\\ \\
The subcommittee members will make their decisions in relation to the information supplied in the three-page proposal below. If you are interested in submitting a project and would like to learn more about the diverse ways the public humanities understand public engagement, partnership, and project building across institutional boundaries, you may find the following resources helpful. Proposals may come from other domains than the humanities so long as they have a key humanities component in their practice.
