Attention all Social Science researchers - from across all Faculties within the University - the ESRC Impact Acceleration Fund has reopened for applications. Projects seeking funding must accelerate impact and support knowledge exchange and impact activities in any area of social science research from within the University of Nottingham.
With more than 45 grants made in previous rounds, on projects as diverse as a prototype app that delivers information about their legal rights to suspects in custody (in conjunction with Horizon and West Midlands Police); the development of community arts projects in three Nottingham secondary schools; a telephone panel survey on the effects of Brexit on firms' hiring, investment sales and export decision-making and a pop-up Research Café in collaboration with Nottingham Contemporary. Full details on awards made so far can be found in the IAA workspace.
There are two schemes currently open, Mode A (up to £2.499K on a rolling deadline) and Mode B (£2.5K-£10K, deadline 23/08/17) and guidance for these can be found in the IAA workspace.
