Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for South Dakota Applicants in the Fellowship for Multi-Country Research Program
The Fellowship for Multi-Country Research program, funded by the Banking Institution, targets advanced research in the humanities, social sciences, and allied natural sciences. For South Dakota applicants, the program's priority outcomes are closely tied to the state's unique demographic and geographic characteristics. The South Dakota State Historical Society and the University of South Dakota's Humanities Institute are among the state agencies and programs that could potentially support or be supported by this research.
Advancing Research on Indigenous Cultures and Histories
South Dakota is home to several Native American reservations, including the Pine Ridge Reservation and the Rosebud Indian Reservation. The state's rich Native American heritage presents a unique opportunity for researchers to explore topics related to indigenous cultures and histories. Priority outcomes for South Dakota applicants may include research that sheds new light on the historical experiences of Native American communities, examines the impact of federal policies on tribal nations, or explores the cultural significance of specific sites or traditions. Researchers may draw on the resources of the South Dakota State Archives or the Dakota Indian Foundation to support their work.
Examining the Rural Brain Drain and Economic Development
South Dakota's rural economy is another area of focus for the Fellowship for Multi-Country Research program. The state's rural counties face significant challenges related to out-migration and economic development, making it an ideal location for research on these topics. Priority outcomes for South Dakota applicants may include studies that examine the causes and consequences of rural brain drain, investigate innovative strategies for promoting economic development in rural areas, or analyze the impact of state and federal policies on rural communities. Researchers may engage with organizations like the South Dakota Rural Development Council or the Governor's Office of Economic Development to inform their work.
Enhancing Understanding of the Missouri River Basin
The Missouri River Basin, which spans much of South Dakota, is a critical geographic feature that distinguishes the state from its neighbors. Research that enhances our understanding of the basin's ecology, economy, and cultural significance is a priority outcome for the Fellowship for Multi-Country Research program. South Dakota applicants may propose studies that examine the impact of climate change on the basin's water resources, investigate the cultural significance of the river to Native American communities, or analyze the economic benefits and costs of different water management strategies. Researchers may collaborate with the South Dakota Department of Environment and Natural Resources or the US Army Corps of Engineers to support their work.
Q: What types of research projects are most likely to be funded in South Dakota? A: Research projects that focus on indigenous cultures and histories, rural economic development, or the Missouri River Basin are likely to be of particular interest to the Fellowship for Multi-Country Research program.
Q: Can I conduct research in other locations besides South Dakota? A: Yes, the Fellowship for Multi-Country Research program is designed to support multi-country research. However, applicants must demonstrate a clear connection to South Dakota and explain how their research will benefit the state or its residents.
Q: How can I ensure that my research is relevant to the needs and priorities of South Dakota's Native American communities? A: Applicants should engage with tribal leaders and community members to inform their research design and ensure that their project is culturally sensitive and responsive to community needs.
