Public Theologies of
Technology and Presence
The Institute of Buddhist Studies, with
the support of the Henry Luce Foundation, invites
proposals from scholars of religion from across the academic
disciplines and theologians from diverse traditions to participate in a
three-year research initiative and series of meetings addressing the
impacts of technologies on human relationships.
Thirteen scholars of religion and theologians will receive grants of
$10,000 each to support individual research projects on technologies
and interpersonal presence. Grantees will gather yearly to share and
hone their research and its applications, explore opportunities for
collaboration, and take advantage of significant Silicon Valley and
media resources.
The detailed request for proposals is available here.
The deadline for the submission of application materials is May 7, 2018.
Please address any questions about the program or the application
process to Program Director Dr. Steven Barrie-Anthony: stevenba@shin-ibs.edu,
(510) 500-9722.
