Finding Funding in the Social Sciences: Meet the Russell Sage Foundation (2021)

The Russell Sage Foundation (RSF), in partnership with the Office of Research and Foundation Relations, will present a workshop to help acquaint social scientists at BU with the Foundation’s mission, funding priorities, programs, and grant application protocols.

The Russell Sage Foundation was established by Margaret Olivia Sage in 1907 for “the improvement of social and living conditions in the United States.” RSF dedicates itself to strengthening the methods, data, and theoretical core of the social sciences to better understand societal problems and develop informed responses. The foundation supports visiting scholars-in-residence and publishes books and a journal under its own imprint. It also funds basic social research at other institutions and supports programs intended to develop new generations of social scientists.
