GRANTS (PAPER INCUBATOR)

12 small grants will be offered as part of our paper incubator, which is a systemized and sponsored mentorship program designed to help junior and mid-career philosophers and scholars of Indian studies to develop submitted papers proposals into publishable articles (junior and mid-career scholars are those who are pursuing a PhD or have completed they PhD in the last 6 years). Each selected researcher will work in cooperation with a tutor (a member of our team), who will help the candidate transform their text into a high-quality publishable article. Philosophy researchers will be tutored by an India studies scholar; Indian studies researchers will be tutored by a philosopher. Each successful applicant will receive a grant of $ 3,000. They will have 18 months to write their article, which must be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal.  By the end of the nineth month there will be a set of virtual meetings with all researchers and tutors where each researcher will present their work. Besides, each researcher must present their work in at least one of our conferences (a bonus of $ 1,000 will be given to those who attend the conference in person). The grant will be awarded through bank transfer, on which bank and federal revenue fees may apply.
