The International Research Grant ($20,00) supports innovative and academic research projects that align with the Foundation’s purposes and outcomes and facilitate a dialogue between international and Australian design practice. There are no constraints to the subject of the proposed project, provided a benefit to Australia’s architecture and design industries is evident and a willingness to share the research findings with the Australian community is displayed. Deliverables of the International Research Grant must include (but are not limited to) a research report in accordance with the ASF Open Access Policy and a public lecture hosted by the Foundation.
The Alastair Swayn Foundation continues Alastair’s legacy, supporting and nurturing the Australian architectural and design community through our grants program. Proposals must demonstrate a benefit to Australia’s architecture and design industries and a willingness to openly share the research findings with the Australian community.
