FLAD is launching the 2023 edition of short-term research grants at Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal, Torre do Tombo and archives and libraries around the country (mainland and Azores and Madeira), with the aim of supporting the promotion of Portuguese language and culture in the U.S.

These programs are aimed at students, teachers, and researchers attached to educational or research institutions in the U.S., with a view to providing a productive stay in Portugal and access to research tools needed for the research projects of those selected.

The grants awarded by FLAD in partnership with DGLAB – Torre do Tombo and Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal are aimed at researching Portuguese history, culture and languages, and other related topics, based on the collections of both archives.

The FLAD Portuguese Archives Grant, created last year to reinforce the promotion and accessibility of on-site research, is extended to archives and libraries throughout the country.

These grants will provide a monthly allowance of €1,400.00 for each month of the scholarship duration, regardless of location in Portugal, and an additional support of €750,00 to subsidize travel-related costs, up to 3 months.
