LRAN is pleased to announce a competition for research grants for academic faculty members and other Ph.Ds who are working on labor-focused projects, defined broadly. Proposals will be judged on the basis of overall quality, but projects with direct relevance to workers and their organizations and/or those undertaken by applicants early in their careers may be given priority. Postdoctoral researchers and other academics not on the tenure track are especially encouraged to apply; applicants must have completed a Ph.D or equivalent.
