Funding of up to £200 available to meet potential and existing stakeholders
We have a limited amount of money available until the end of the academic year for researchers to help facilitate relationship building that leads to potential impact. All awards must be spent by 31 July 2022.
Apply for the Research Impact Fund small travel grant to support network-building and meetings with key stakeholders and policymakers, media appearances, or attendance at industry/policy/third sector events where network-building for impact is the key reason for attending. (Please note that this fund does not support conference attendance unless for this purpose, and where it is likely to lead to impact development.)
Eligibility:
You will be eligible to apply if you meet the following criteria:
- You are an ECR and / or you are new to research, or
- You can demonstrate you have emerging impact from existing research
Please familiarise yourself with BU’s Research Impact Policy and Research Impact Fund Guidance Notes before applying.
The online application form can be completed here.
Please contact researchimpact@bournemouth.ac.uk with any queries.
