Flaherty Research Scholarships support up to six Canadian research scholars traveling to Ireland for visits of between 4 and 6 weeks in duration.
If you are a PhD student or post-doctoral academic in the early stages of your research career, you may be eligible for the Scholarship. This award is designed to help scholars make contacts with researchers working in related research topics, with a view to widening and deepening the scholar’s research horizons, ideally leading to continued collaboration in future research.
It is the aim of the Flaherty Foundation to support individuals who are future leaders in their academic or post academic field, whose work will fulfill one or more of the following;
- contribute to greater collaboration between both countries in areas of public service, economics and trade
- contribute to a greater shared cultural understanding between countries
- explore areas of strategic importance to both countries, such as energy, transport, communications, health, natural resources and environmental sustainability
- open ways in which the Irish diaspora in Canada, and the Canadian diaspora in Ireland can deepen their engagement with their country of origin.
