Every year, the AAR awards collaborative research grants, ranging from $500 to $5,000, to stimulate cooperative research among scholars with a clearly identified research project or support interdisciplinary work with scholars outside the field of religion. These projects are proposed by AAR members and selected by the AAR Research Grants Jury.
