ELIGIBILITY

Nominees can be offices, working groups, or individuals. As DEIA work generally is ongoing and long-term, projects initiated within the previous three years are eligible. Projects need not be complete or have reached their endpoint, but should have demonstrable progress at the time of nomination. Initiatives addressing issues of accessibility inherent to work in historical and related professions for people with disabilities, expanding a program’s audience to previously underserved communities, prioritizing ethics in historical collections or setting up structural frameworks for prioritizing DEIA work are examples of the type of work or projects this award will highlight.
