The Public Engagement Development Funding Call is now open

The Public Engagement with Research unit invite applications to our annual funding call from staff, researchers, and external partners to develop public and community engagement (PCE) activities.

Our seed-funding has supported numerous projects over the years, many of which have thrived and grown beyond the funding period to attract other funding, develop partnerships and take up new and exciting directions. A significant number have contributed to REF impact case studies. Visit the Public Engagement with Research unit SharePoint site to read some of our Case Studies and find out more about last year’s projects. 

This year’s call focuses on four activity strands: 

  • Relationship building 
  • Collaborative partnership for PCE 
  • Reflective practice for PCE 
  • Experimental 

The deadline for applications is Friday 22 September, and the Public Engagement Team will be hosting an information session via Microsoft Teams on Thursday 3 August 13:00-14:30 for applicants to find out more and ask questions. 

Full details of the call, a timeline, and the application form can be found on the Public Engagement Devlopment Fund SharePoint page.

If you are a community partner and do not have access to our University of Southampton SharePoint pages, please use the email below to contact us. We can send you the call guidance, criteria and application form.

We look forward to reading your applications!
