Description:

Are you working on figurative language? Check out the RaAM Research Grant
(2.000GBP) CALL FOR PROPOSALS!
Deadline for submissions: February 28, 2022.

Goal: 
The goal of the RaAM Research Grant project is to promote research on all
types of figurative language carried out by RaAM members. We particularly
encourage RaAM members to submit research proposals in areas not yet well
represented in metaphor research, whether it be geographical areas, certain
languages, or research in any area of diversity, equity and inclusivity
including gender, race, LGBTQIA studies, etc. The ideal project will be a
stand-alone study that can be published as a journal article.

Requirement: 
The principal investigator (PI) needs to have an active RaAM membership at the
application deadline and during the period during which the grant is being
carried out and the grant expectations (below) are being fulfilled.

Announcement: May 2022

Timeframe of research project: July 2022 to June 2023

Budget: 
You can apply for up to 2000 GBP per project (total budget available for this
round for all projects: 4000 GBP).

Requests for funding may include: software, books, e-books, money to pay
participants in an offline or online experiment, economy class travel for data
collection, daily allowance for room/board for data collection, or expenses
related to a public engagement activity.

Requests for funding may not include: phones, computers, salary for an
assistant, attending conferences (note that there are separate bursaries that
can be applied for to attend a RaAM conference)

Half of the grant will be given to awardees at the start of the project in
July 2022. The remaining grant money must be submitted within 13 months after
the start date (July 2023) with copies of all the receipts as well as all the
expenditures clearly listed in an Excel file. In addition, the below
expectations must be fulfilled prior to getting the second half of the grant.

Grant expectations: 
If you receive this grant, you will be expected to provide:
 - a short abstract for the RaAM newsletter prior to the start of the project
(June 2022);
 - a short write-up of the results for the RaAM newsletter after you complete
the grant (June or October 2023);
 - a three-minute lightning presentation at the RaAM 2023 Annual General
Meeting. 
In addition, we encourage the awardees to submit a full abstract to the RaAM
2023 conference. We also request that any output (academic
books/articles/chapters or non-academic reports or events) acknowledge the
RaAM Research Grant and associated grant number and be reported to the RaAM
Executive Committee upon publication.
