Congratulations to the Department of Anthropology, National University of Vietnam-Hanoi, recipient of the 2011 Institutional Development Grant. This renewable grant -- providing $25,000 per year for up to five years -- will enable the development of a doctoral program in anthropology at the University, which currently has an active undergraduate and Masters level program. The Foundation is very excited to support this venture and the growth of anthropology in Vietnam.
