British Academy Innovation Fellowships 2026-27

The British Academy Innovation Fellowships provide an international fellowship for researchers in the humanities and social sciences to collaborate with partner organizations on a specific project. The scheme includes two routes, with Route B (policy-led) currently accepting applications in collaboration with several government and public-sector partners. The fellowship lasts 12 months and offers substantial financial support.

Financial support up to £120,000 for 12 months, and opportunities to partner with central government departments and other organizations to apply research outcomes beyond academia.
