Research - Tourism Fellows Grant Archives
Fellows Grant Program
CenTRO Fellow’s Grants have increased understanding of tourism activity in Maine and/or supported innovative tourism initiatives since 2006. The value of tourism in Maine has resulted in the need to address tourism’s complicated issues through research and outreach initiatives that extend to local communities and the tourism industry. CenTRO is committed to supporting tourism research throughout Maine, but due to current economic constraints grant cycles have been postponed.
