Dear Colleagues
The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is inviting proposals for public engagement with environmental science which understand, address or mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak.
This funding aims to help researchers find different and better methods of engagement that they would not otherwise be able to implement. It could also help researchers find alternative ways to gather data that would otherwise be collected on fieldwork which can no longer go ahead. There is also room to consider how a diversity of audience groups will be affected and able to access digital engagement.
NERC intends to fund projects costing up to £10,000 each with a total budget of £50,000. Successful projects must be completed by 31 March 2021. The closing date for proposals is 16:00 Hours (BST) Wednesday 13 May, 2020. Full details are available here - https://nerc.ukri.org/funding/application/currentopportunities/nerc-covid-19-public-engagement-grant/
THIS CALL IS SUPPORTED BY THE INSTITUTE FOR POLICY AND ENGAGEMENT. If you are planning to apply please contact Maria Richards<mailto:maria.richards at nottingham.ac.uk> so that we can keep a record of interest and give guidance if appropriate.
Best wishes
Maria
