Greetings All,
We at the Antislavery Knowledge Network are pleased to announce a Network Plus call in collaboration with University of Ghana, University of Nottingham and University of Hull.
The AHRC GCRF Network+ project ‘The Antislavery Knowledge Network:Community-Led Strategies for Creative and Heritage-Based Interventions in Sub-Saharan Africa’ invites applicants from NGO, University, Research Institutes, Arts or Cultural Organisations, or Social Enterprises working in ODA countries to submit bids which will address how slavery is a core development challenge in sub-Saharan Africa via innovative approaches from the arts and humanities to deliver community-engaged antislavery work.
Focusing on the idea of activated community memory, the project champions the use of arts and humanities as a resource for social change. One of the core aims of the network is to explore the ways in which participatory arts-based strategies, rooted in heritage and memory, can empower Global South communities to play a central role in tackling contemporary slavery.
We have two types of funding available:
Medium-sized grants £5,000-30,000
Large grants £30,000-100,000
We anticipate funding around 15 projects, and will seek to make a mixed portfolio of awards.
Awards can be for between 6 and 18 months in duration and must begin by the end of 2018.
Deadline for submission of proposals is 15 August 2018 with funding decisions issued by 1 October 2018.
For further information and the relevant documents and application forms please refer to our website.
