[Public-engagement] ESRC Festival of Social Sciences, call for expressions of interest, deadline Friday 1 July

[Amy Hawksworth]

Dear colleagues,



We're delighted to be once again taking part in the ESRC's Festival of Social Sciences. More details on the festival can be found on their website: https://festivalofsocialscience.com/about/ and more information on this year's festival in particular can be found in the Festival Leader's Pack which can be found here: https://uniofnottm.sharepoint.com/sites/Institute/SitePages/News-and-Events.aspx Taking part in this festival will provide you with:



*         An opportunity to share your social science research with a broad range of non-academic audiences and expand your portfolio of impact and knowledge exchange activities

*         Marketing support, with your event being advertised at a local and national level

*         The opportunity to be part of a national, established festival

*         Evaluation support to measure the success of your event

*         Funding of up to £1000 for each event



This year, the festival will take place between 22 October - 13 November, with all events taking place within this timeframe. The festival's theme is "my local area" and events should link to this theme where possible, but this is not mandatory and we invite applications for events on any theme relating to the social sciences from across the University. However, all events MUST be aimed at a public audience. An expression of interest should be submitted using the following form before midnight on Friday 1 July. https://forms.office.com/r/hQ0gis1cTW Applicants will be informed of the outcome by Friday 8 July.



Should you have any questions about the festival or your application, please get in touch with your faculty or school knowledge exchange and impact (KEI) staff or, if you're unsure of who to speak to, please contact  amy.hawksworth at nottingham.ac.uk<mailto:amy.hawksworth at nottingham.ac.uk> who will be able to help.

Many thanks,


Amy Hawksworth
