Affiliated international prizes

The Royal Irish Academy is a member of several global academic networks and international scholarly associations.

We work to raise the international profile of Ireland’s researchers and research networks, strengthen the voice of the sciences, humanities and social sciences and support international collaboration and mobility through Academy grants, awards and prizes programmes. We work closely with sister academies including international research collaboration grants.

The Royal Irish Academy nominates suitable candidates for esteemed and prestigious international prizes. In addition to endorsing nominations, the Academy communicates successful candidates’ activities to national academics and policymakers in Ireland.
