The Arts and Humanities Research Council and Economic and Social Research Council’s study abroad fellowships for PhD students and early career researchers are set to go ahead this year but are reduced in number because of the pandemic. Prior to the arrival of Covid-19, eight international institutions participated. This year, there are four partners: three in the United States and one—the National Institutes for the Humanities—in Japan.
