As in the inaugural edition, the Prize is international in nature and consists of a research fellowship in Lisbon to be awarded to a recent doctorate. The jury for the 2022 edition will be composed of Manuela Ribeiro Sanches (Institute of Contemporary History), Victor Barros (École des Hautes Études Hispaniques et Ibériques at Casa de Velázquez) and Rui Gomes Coelho (Durham University).
