Funded by Power to Change and the Arts and Humanities Research Council, CUPI supports community organisations (including community businesses, charities, social enterprises, and voluntary organisations) and university researchers to create trusting and useful research collaborations which benefit all the partners involved. Are you curious about building a new partnership? Have you got a research idea you are keen to explore? Then the current events could be a perfect opportunity to get involved. Events are currently taking place in the following regions (further locations to be confirmed): * Bristol - Thursday 22nd March at Knowle West Media Centre * Manchester - Tuesday 17th April at St Thomas Centre We are now accepting applications for places at these two match events. Please note that applying for a match event does not guarantee your place. We will be back in touch following registration to confirm whether applicants have been successful. CUPI is based on the successful MUPI programme - which found that a regional focus helped ensure attendees found relevant people to work with. The 4 pilot match events will be taking place in England, in line with Power to Changes remit, however applications are open to those from across the UK who identify with the geographical area of the match event. Following evaluation of the pilot programme, we will seek funding to enable us to develop more comprehensive coverage across the UK. Find out more and register your interest for the Bristol or Manchester match event for the opportunity to create a new partnership, access funding and explore getting a research idea off the ground.

URL: From Madalina.Stalniceanu at nottingham.ac.uk Mon Jan 15 16:37:39 2018 From: Madalina.Stalniceanu at nottingham.ac.uk (Madalina Stalniceanu) Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2018 16:37:39 +0000 Subject: [Public-engagement] Nottingham Contemporary - events on translation Message-ID: Dear all, You might be interested in two events around questions of translation and its intersections with critical theory and visual cultures that Nottingham Contemporary is organising in February. A. Conference On Translations 17th Feb, 10am-5pm Nottingham Contemporary This one-day event of talks and performances brings together artists and scholars to explore the cultural and political contradictions that arise in processes of translation. The conference aims to question the ambiguities embedded in translation, ranging from the erasure of languages and epistemologies by colonialism, to contemporary transnational and globalised connections. Speakers include: Andrew Goffey, Dima Hamadeh, Fehras Publishing Practices, Ghazal Mosadeq, Quinsy Gario, Rana Hamadeh, Stefan Nowotny. B. From Translation as Erasure to Translation as Listening (with Rolando V?zquez) 16th Feb, 2-6pm This seminar has limited capacity, so if you are interested in attending, please email Carolina Rito, Head of Public Programmes and Research, at Carolina at nottinghamcontemporary.org. This seminar addresses three different orientations of translation: modernity, coloniality and decoloniality. To raise the question of translation requires us to address issues of power across the colonial difference: who translates, what is translated and for what, who holds the space of translation? The question of translation takes a different shape according to the type of mediation. Translation as modernity functions to affirm the supremacy of the dominant locus of enunciation. Translation as coloniality is a movement of incorporation as erasure of other worlds of meaning, of other forms of relating to the real. Both, translation as modernity and as coloniality work in tandem to enforce modernity as the total horizon of intelligibility, as the monopoly of the real. Conversely, translation as decoloniality expresses ways in which the modern/colonial divide can be overcome. Translation as decoloniality is engaged with the generation of intercultural encounters towards pluriversal forms of understanding, sensing and doing. A condition for intercultural translation is to recognize each-others positionality in relation to the intersecting axes of oppression that structure the colonial divide. To practice translation decoloniality is to practice a form of listening that enables us to become grounded and legible in relation to the plurality of each-other's worlds. Rolando V?zquez contributes to the movement of decolonial aesthesis and thought. He is associate professor of sociology at University College Roosevelt, affiliated to the research institute for Cultural Inquiry (ICON) and the Gender Studies Department of the University of Utrecht. With Walter Mignolo he has coordinated for eight Years the Middelburg Decolonial Summer School. In 2016 with Gloria Wekker et. al. he wrote the report of the Diversity Commission of the University of Amsterdam. In 2017 he curated the workshop: 'Staging the End of the Contemporary' for MaerzMusik at the Berliner Festspiele. His work seeks to transgress the dominion of contemporaneity, heteronormativity and modernity/coloniality. Developing the question of precedence and relational temporalities he seeks to contribute to decolonize institutions, epistemologies, aesthetics and subjectivities.

This year, the festival has been strongly supported by the University of Nottingham and as it always has, will feature the fantastic efforts of many University of Nottingham staff and students who will be delivering a huge variety of public engagement and outreach activities. The main day of the festival will be Saturday 17th February, where drop-in activities, workshops and shows will be happening all across the city centre in places such as Broadmarsh shopping centre, Central Library, National Videogame Arcade, Broadway Cinema and even in the streets at Long Row (Smithy Row). We would like to encourage as many people as possible to stop by the festival's Saturday events to support our colleagues and see how they are bringing their work to new audiences. All drop-in activities are child friendly, so the whole family is welcome. Full details of the festival programme can be found online at www.nottsfosac.co.uk.

Please find further details below. Research For All is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal focusing on engaged research. It is co-sponsored by the UCL Institute of Education and the NCCPE, and published by UCL IOE Press. Best wishes, Laura -- [cid:image001.png at 01D398F7.4464D800] NEW ISSUE - Volume 2, Number 1 Research for All presents the first in a series of occasional features focusing on engaged research in a specific sector. This time we focus on schools and researchers working together, with articles on young people contributing to research (Colthurst & Tuite; Parker), sharing research findings in the classroom (Tagg &Jafry), collaboration with school management for effective health research (Hewitt et al.), enabling better school-university knowledge exchange (Morris et al.) and transitions for students (Michels & Eijkelhof), and the implications of student volunteers supporting after-school clubs (Tansy & Gallo). The issue also presents contributions related to health (Baker & Courtney; Moberg et al.; Grant et al.; Mclean et al.), the green economy (Ward et al.) and English for speakers of other languages (Mclean et al.), and on subjects that are key to everyone involved in engaged research, notably project evaluation (Reed et al.), impact measurement (Grant et al.) and modes of sharing knowledge (editorial). A book review (Hemsley & Gordon-Smith) highlights the difficulty in using one resource to address different audiences.
