Following on from the success of the first round of regional events in 2007/08, the AHRC will be holding a further five regional events in 2009 based around the newly formed regionally-focused teams in our Programmes Division.
The programme will highlight strategic issues such as collaborative research and will showcase the diverse range of AHRC-funded research and its social and economic impact on the wider world. Breakout sessions and workshops will remain an important part of the programme, as a more informal and interactive space for our colleagues in HEIs to interact with AHRC staff.
Through the regional events programme, the AHRC hopes to give arts and humanities researchers, senior HEI staff and support staff, as well as non-academic stakeholders the opportunity to find out about AHRC strategic priorities, attend focused workshops and join discussions on a range of subjects; to meet each other and AHRC staff and to develop stronger links between the organisation and award holders.
