Funding for Public Engagement Projects in the Humanities & Social Sciences (UK)

The British Academy has launched a pilot award scheme to fund projects that engage the public with the arts, humanities and social sciences.

The SHAPE Involve and Engage programme will award grants of up to £8,000 to humanities and social sciences researchers for innovative public engagement projects, delivered in partnership with cultural partners such as a gallery, archive, library or museum.

The call offers an opportunity to build new connections with cultural partners from across the UK, and trial creative ideas for engaging the public with research from across the SHAPE disciplines (social sciences, humanities and the arts for people and the economy).

The funding is provided by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology.

The deadline for applications is 5pm on the 28th June 2022.
