These terms and conditions provide important information concerning the Turin Humanities
Programme grant.

RESIDENCY IN TURIN
Fellows will be required to reside in Turin for at least seven months per calendar year. All the
activities of the program will take place in person, and the presence of the fellows is expected.
Longer absences during the core period of activities (from November to June) will need to be
agreed upon with the Director of Studies.
The grant covers a period of two years, from November 1, 2026 to October 31, 2028.
During their residency in Turin, the fellows will be responsible for their accommodation in a
facility of their own choice.

RESEARCH CONDITIONS AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Each fellow will be supervised by the Director of Studies, who will assist the fellows and
monitor the progress of their research projects, reporting to the Senior Fellows and to
Fondazione 1563.
A mid-term assessment will be conducted by the Director of Studies for each fellow in Spring 2027.
A successful assessment is a precondition for the confirmation of the fellowship for the second
year.
In Autumn 2027, the fellows will provide an interim report on their research in the form of a
2.500-word paper to be presented in a round-table format to the Scientific Committee of the
THP and the Director of Studies, and to be uploaded to the webpage of THP.

At the end of their fellowships, the fellows will be requested to submit to Fondazione 1563 a
comprehensive report detailing the outcome of their research project in the form of a 5000-word
paper to be published in the series of the Quaderni del Turin Humanities Programme, a publication
(both in printed and open access digital version) produced by Fondazione 1563 that will include
the written contributions of the Junior Fellows, the Director of Studies, and a selection of
contributions of the speakers that participated in the academic activities of the cycle.
The research projects will have to be completed over 24 months. No extension will be allowed.
The fellows will inform Fondazione 1563 of any other publication linked to the research
activities carried out within the framework of this fellowship, as well as of the presentation of
such publications at conferences or seminars. As is customary, it is expected that publications
deriving from research carried out during the fellowship will acknowledge the support of
Fondazione 1563.
The grantees will provide Fondazione 1563 with a hard copy of any relevant publication linked
to the research activities carried out within the framework of this fellowship.
Junior Fellows are expected to participate in the activities of the THP scientific community and
