Seed Grants Help Faculty Lead the Way in Confronting Racism and Bias

Seed Grant Leaders

The Office for Faculty Advancement has awarded seed grants to 14 faculty-led projects exploring new ideas and expanding existing initiatives to promote an equitable and inclusive academic environment at Duke. The theme for this cycle was "Confronting Racism and Bias: Fostering an Inclusive Community." Faculty Advancement Seed Grants provide a financial head start for novel faculty development initiatives within academic units.

Among the projects, professors Beverly McIver (Art, Art History, Visual Studies),  Fred Broadu (Pratt), Angela Richard-Eaglin (DUSON), Charmaine Royal (AAAS), Anne-Marie Makhulu (CulAnth), and Nicki Washington (CompSci) are leading or co-leading! Check out all the projects here.
