Public Engagement

Funding

There are several funding mechanisms available to support researchers to develop public engagement activities and partnerships. We support this by providing Engaged Research Funds which cover a range of award sizes.

We welcome applications from all members of our community and particularly encourage those from diverse groups, such as members of the LGBTQI+ and BAME communities, to apply. If you require any further information, including discussion about the suitability of your idea for the funds, please contact per@exeter.ac.uk with enquiries.

Engaged Research Funds 2023–24

Within the 2023–24 academic year we offered five distinct Engaged Research Funds. These included: the PPIE Fund, the Research Seed Fund, the Research Springboard Fund, the Participatory Research Exploratory Fund, and the Bridging Communities Fund.

Celebrate the most recent successes of the Engaged Research Funds awardees can view more about their projects in the pamphlets below.

"This has been really helpful - I have realised a lot of things I have been doing fall into public engagement and can now work to be more purposeful about it all."
