The grant programme targets researchers interested in the history, role and impact of Christian Democracy, and in particular of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, on decisive moments in the process of European integration. All current postgraduate students (master’s and doctoral candidates) and postdoctoral researchers who have completed a doctorate degree in the past three years preceding the date of submission of the application are eligible to apply.

Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application before July 15th 2020. Successful applicants will receive a research grant of 5.000 € to cover all expenses, and will thereby have the opportunity to broaden their research by studying the primary sources held at the Historical Archives of the European Union in Florence, at the EPP Group’s archives in Brussels and/or at the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) in Sankt Augustin - Bonn.
