Iasa Research Grants

Each year the IASA makes a number of grants intended to support research in any academic area covered by the IASA’s aims, which are to promote research relating to the Arabian Peninsula, in particular, its archaeology, art, culture, epigraphy, ethnography, geography, geology, history, languages, literature and natural history. Grants may be used to fund fieldwork, library, or laboratory-based research or research support. The number of grants awarded each year depends on the amount of money available.
