The Foundation awards grants for the organisation of workshops and symposia in the field of current history.
It encourages workshops and symposia which apply the study of the recent past, of open-ended historical phenomena, and of the interaction between past and present to highlight the historical processes at work in the social, economical, political or cultural spheres.
Matched with other contributions, the Foundation can finance part of the participants' travel costs, accommodation or subsistence expenses.
