Please find below the European Science Foundation (ESF) Standing Committee
for the Humanities (SCH) latest news:

A) The 2004 Call for proposals for Exploratory Workshops has now been launched:
ESF Exploratory Workshops are viewed by the ESF Standing Committee for the
Humanities (SCH) as a useful instrument for identifying emerging fields
requiring action at a European level. Exploratory Workshops are aimed at
helping European research teams to exchange knowledge, establish new links
and to explore the possibilities of developing future collaborative actions.
The 2004 Call for Proposals is for workshops to be held between 1
January-31 December 2005.
Applications should be submitted as an attachment to
<mailto:EW-proposals@esf.org>EW-proposals@esf.org by 1 May 2004.
More information is available at the following address:

B) Travel Grants are offered in the framework of two ESF Scientific Programmes:

   **The ESF Scientific Programme on Representations of the Past: The
Writing of National Histories in Nineteenth and Twentieth Century Europe
(NHIST) invites applications for two types of travel grants:
(1) grants for short visits of up to 15 days, to attend workshops and
cross-team conferences of the NHIST programme and/or to do research, and
(2) grants for longer research stays of up to 6 months to contribute to the
NHIST programme or one of its teams. For the research topics please see the
NHIST website at the address below.
Applications should be submitted in electronic form to the Programme
Coordinator by 15 April 2004.

**The ESF Scientific Programme on From Natural Philosophy to Science offers
grants to enable junior scholars, both at the doctoral and postdoctoral
level to attend one of the programme's workshops and thus meet scholars who
are active in their own field.
Applications should be submitted in electronic form to the Programme
Coordinator no later than three months before the workshop.
