ASLE is pleased to announce an International Membership Grants Initiative. The Initiative provides 50 ASLE-US membership grants to literature and environment scholars outside the US and Canada. The grants are designed to help a more diverse, international community of scholars gain access to educational and scholarly opportunities in our field, as well as to advance educational and professional opportunities beyond the US and Canada.The 2013-14 International Membership Grants Initiative will begin January 15, 2013.  Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis until 50 two-year memberships have been granted. The Grants Initiative for 2015-16 will begin in January 2015.
