FINANCING
The Sociedad de Estudios Históricos de Navarra, as a non-profit-making association, is financed by the membership fees of its members.
However, for the organisation of its various activities (series of conferences, round tables, congresses, etc.) it also participates in public calls for subsidies and grants for cultural dissemination, both from the public administration (Government of Navarre and Pamplona City Council) and from other institutions such as the Caja Navarra Foundation. At the same time, it receives the collaboration of Navarre’s town councils through the cession of their cultural spaces for the development of its programmes.
