HFG Distinguished Scholar Awards for Researchers 2023

The HFG Distinguished Scholar Awards for the 2023/24 cohort are currently accepting applications from eligible candidates. The Harry Frank Guggenheim (HFG) foundation is open to proposals from the natural and social sciences that focus on addressing pressing issues of violence in today’s world.

The Foundation provides funding for research that examines the fundamental processes involved in the creation of violence, but it places greater importance on proposals that present a strong argument for the significance of potential discoveries in developing policies aimed at mitigating such problems.

The majority of the grants offered fall in the bracket of $15,000 to $45,000 per year, which can be awarded for a duration of one or two years. Proposals requesting larger sums and longer duration may also be considered, but a strong rationale must be provided. The grants are intended for individuals or, in exceptional cases, two or three principal investigators for specific research projects, and not for general research support. Institutions are not eligible to receive awards for institutional programs. It is important to note that individuals who receive research grants may be required to pay taxes on the awarded funds.
