Expert / Consultant Visits

Expert / Consultant Visits is a grant programme that enables European not-for-profit institutions to hire an external expert to visit and produce a report on the Jewish material in their collections. The grant supports activities such as cataloguing, digitisation, conservation, exhibition design and educational programming. The Foundation provides funding to cover consultant fees and reasonable expenses, and payment is made directly to the expert after submission of the report. Applications must be made by the organisation and are assessed on a rolling basis.

Up to £2,000 to fund consultant fees and reasonable expenses; an expert report produced for the applicant organisation.

Applications are welcome from any organisation based in Europe (EU and non-EU) except organisations in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. The applying organisation must operate on a not-for-profit basis and provide proof of this status.

Organisations must apply via the Rothschild Foundation online grants portal, submitting required supporting documents (proof of not-for-profit status, CV of proposed expert, translations where relevant).
