Opportunity Information: Apply for 20190612 MD
Digital Projects for the Public is a discretionary grant program offered by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) through its Division of Public Programs. The program is designed to fund public-facing digital work that interprets and analyzes humanities content, with the main audience being the general public rather than specialists. In practical terms, NEH is looking for digital projects that make humanities ideas, stories, collections, or scholarship accessible and engaging through formats people can actually use and encounter in everyday life, including websites, mobile apps (and app-based tours), interactive touch screens and kiosks, digital games, and immersive or simulated spaces such as virtual environments.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number 20190612 MD and falls under the Humanities funding activity category (aligned with cultural affairs in CFDA). The CFDA number associated with the program is 45.164. Awards under this competition can be as large as $300,000 per project (the award ceiling), and NEH anticipated making around seven awards based on the information provided. As a federal humanities grant, the emphasis is not simply on digitizing content, but on using digital tools to support interpretation, analysis, and public understanding of humanities subjects, such as history, literature, philosophy, religious studies, cultural studies, and related fields.
Eligibility is broad and includes many public-sector, nonprofit, and educational institutions. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions when applying in that nonprofit category). In other words, the program is open to a wide range of organizations that typically serve public audiences, manage humanities resources, or have the capacity to create and sustain digital public programming.
This particular posting was created on April 18, 2019, with an original application deadline of June 12, 2019. Even though that closing date reflects the specific cycle referenced in the source data, the description captures the core purpose of the Digital Projects for the Public program: to help organizations produce high-quality digital experiences that present humanities content in thoughtful, interpretive ways and reach audiences through commonly used digital platforms.Apply for 20190612 MD
