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.
