fund and how it can benefit you as an
individual practitioner or cultural sector organisation.

Book: Workshop 1                                             Book: Workshop 2

Before signing up to these workshops, please make sure you are eligible to apply to the Collaborate fund.

If you are an individual practitioner or part of a cultural sector organisation within the UK considering applying to our Collaborate fund, then these workshops are for you.

Please note these events aren’t suitable for academic and commercial researchers, students or international guests. We will run separate briefing workshops for academics in early 2023. 

Join us to find out about our fund to support the development of new collaborative research projects between the cultural sector and academic researchers.

Successful projects will contribute to deeper understanding of the differences culture makes to people’s lives and to the range of research methodologies used to explore cultural value.

These two events will provide more information about the fund, as well as help you to think about the research project you might like to explore. We will also guide you through the application process, before expressions of interest open on Monday 17 October 2022.

Event outcomes

In the event, you will:

  • Hear more about what the Collaborate fund is
  • Find out how to apply and what the application process and timescales are
  • Have the opportunity to ask questions, think about your ideas for your research project and share thoughts with other practitioners
  • Leave with the insights you need to submit the best possible Expression of Interest.

You may want to take a look at our Collaborate resources before here.

What are the benefits of taking part in Collaborate?

Collaborate will give cultural sector practitioners the opportunity to explore and more deeply understand your practice and to communicate the cultural value of your work more effectively. Working in partnership with academic researchers can also help to open up new ways of thinking, develop innovative ideas and practice and build new networks.

Accessibility

We want to make the event a positive experience for all participants. If you have particular access needs please let us know in advance at ccv@leeds.ac.uk

Live transcription by a palantypist (speech to text reporter) is provided for this session. Transcription will be available on Zoom captions, and on StreamText.net.

The session takes place on Zoom. Read Zoom’s accessibility FAQs here.
