ESRC Funding for Knowledge Exchange
- Date:
- 19 January 2012
The ESRC's knowledge exchange funding call is now open and will close on 7 Feb. It includes public engagement within the call.
The scheme provides the opportunity to apply for funding for knowledge exchange activities at any stage of the research lifecycle, and is aimed at maximising the impact of social science research outside academia.
The flexibility built into the scheme is intended to encourage applicants to think creatively about knowledge exchange, and applications are welcomed for either a single activity or a combination of activities; be it setting up a network to help inform the development of a research proposal, arranging an academic placement with a voluntary or business organisation, or developing tools such as podcasts and videos aimed at communicating the results of research to non-academic audiences.
Applicants can apply for projects up to one year in duration. However, the proposed start date should be no earlier than 1 September 2012.
