Princeton University Press’s mission is to inspire scholarly inquiry and impact throughout the world. In support of our mission, we commit to a publications program that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. Recognizing that achieving equity entails meaningful intervention, we have created Global Equity Grants. We invite authors of underrepresented groups to apply for these grants to support the preparation of works that are under contract (advance or final), in production, or published within the last 12 months. Categories of support include:
Parental/family care
Travel funds for research
Travel funds for conference or event attendance
Illustration or permissions expenses
Developmental editing
Translation
Developmental editing for English as additional language authors
Proposal or manuscript workshops
Supplemental advertising or marketing to extend reach of a new publication
Media coaching
Funds to support a research assistant
Grants range from $500 to $4000. All authors who are under contract are eligible, one grant per book. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis and responses can be expected within six weeks of receipt.
