Applications are being invited for the next round of the Research-Development Grant (max. €1,000/£850), operated by the Irish Museums Trust in partnership with the Irish Museums Association. Deadline for receipt of applications: 16:00, Wednesday 30 April 2025

Offering grants up to a maximum of €1,000/£850 each, awarded twice a year to a total of €5,000, this small grant scheme is aimed at those working in the museum sector in Ireland and students at research masters or Doctoral level, involved in researching a subject relevant to the understanding, management or development of museums across the island.

Another objective of the scheme is to enhance networking and peer-to-peer exchanges of knowledge and mutual support, nationally or internationally, among those working in Irish museums.
