Call for proposals
In 2023, the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) established the Antisemitism Research
Group, which aims to conduct comprehensive research into contemporary antisemitism in
Austria in an institutionalized form.
The ÖAW is inviting applications for 2026 fellowships at all career levels (from pre-doctoral
level). The aim of the fellowship is to close research gaps in the field of research on
antisemitism in Austria.
The call for proposals focuses on projects that deal with manifestations and actors of
antisemitism in Austria or with the reactions and/or defensive measures of Jewish and non-
Jewish actors. The connection to Austria must be given in any case and the focus should be on
the period from 1945 to the present.
