AHRC/BBC workshop on Scottish Historical, Cultural and Artistic Identity
The AHRC is collaborating with BBC TV on a seminar that brings together BBC commissioning and editorial staff with arts and humanities researchers specialising or with interests in questions around ‘Scottishness’ and Scottish identity/identities.
The year 2014 will be an important year for Scotland, with the XXth Commonwealth Games being held in Scotland, the Glasgow 2014 Cultural Programme and the planned referendum on Scottish independence. The BBC is in the planning stages of commissioning programmes to mark this important moment in the history of Scotland and in the history of its relationship with the UK and the wider world.
Expressions of interest are invited from researchers from all disciplines within the arts and humanities to participate in a half-day AHRC/BBC workshop on Friday 26th April to explore ideas that will help feed into BBC TV programming.
