Stichting Catharina Halkes Fonds supports scholarship at the intersection of gender and religion, with a clear emphasis on feminist theology, religious studies, and related academic teaching and publishing in the Netherlands. Its grants tend to back concrete research outputs, conference participation, fellowships, and publication projects rather than general operating support, and it appears especially interested in work that advances scholarly debate in this niche field. The funder is academic and highly specialized, often helping researchers, PhD students, and theologians develop or disseminate work connected to gender, religion, and feminist perspectives.
Twice-yearly, application-based grants and fellowships with deadlines on 1 March and 1 October; awards support specific academic projects, publication costs, conference travel, or research stays, and applications require a project plan and budget with references/recommendations for fellowships.
Apply through their formal process by 1 March or 1 October, and make sure your proposal is tightly centered on gender and religion with a clear academic output, budget, and timeline. For fellowship requests, include a strong project plan and the required recommendations, and emphasize how the work contributes to research or teaching in the Netherlands or to an international research stay.
