About this program
The **Lawrence T. Geraty Community Archaeology Grants**, sponsored by the **American Society of Overseas Research (ASOR)**, offer small grants of up to $5,000 to support projects that foster local engagement in the protection, preservation, and presentation of archaeological sites in Jordan, starting with Madaba Plains Project sites. These grants aim to model effective partnerships between archaeologists and local communities for mutual benefit. Eligible applicants include **directors of ASOR-affiliated projects or senior staff members**, with non-director applicants requiring a letter of endorsement from the project director. Projects may focus on training site stewards, outreach programs, engaging local school children, income generation, or archaeological restoration and documentation, with a requirement to consult local authorities for permits and ensure stakeholder cooperation.
