Hoover Archives Research Assistance Scholarship

For a better and deeper understanding of the interdependent recent history of (Central and Eastern) Europe, the Freedom Broadcasting Foundation (formerly the RFE/RL Fund) and the Open Society Archives at Central European University (OSA) offer a grant which covers altogether 108 distant research hours in the Hoover Institution on a competitive basis to support scholars who wish to conduct research in the Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty holdings of the Hoover Institution Archives, Stanford University, and whose current research projects are relevant to these holdings.
