Japan-related Speakers and Panels at National Conventions of Major Scholarly Disciplines

The purpose of this program is to encourage scholarly study of Japan by disciplinary specialists such as political scientists, economists, geographers, musicologists, historians, anthropologists, linguists, and scientists, by providing financial support to organizers of panels at annual conventions of national scholarly organizations to bring Japan expers (of any nationality) and Japanese scholars to participate in those panels. Preference will be given to applications that come from the professional associations where Japanese perspectives have been historically neglected.
