[Commlist] Bid-Generating Sandpit: Interdisciplinary Research Towards Sustainable Development Goals

Funded by the British Academy Early Career Researcher Network and 
organised by the Centre for the Study of Conflict, Emotion, and Social 
Justice at Bournemouth University, we are inviting applications for the:

 2025 BID-GENERATING SANDPIT: INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH TOWARDS 
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
26 – 27 March 2025
Bournemouth University, Executive Business Centre (TBC)

Participate in dynamic and interactive sessions to develop innovative 
research concepts addressing any of the United Nations Sustainable 
Development Goals (UNSDGs), leading to funding bids across institutions 
and disciplines, including media and communication studies. Your goal is 
to form an interdisciplinary project team and build a funding proposal 
in only two days. You will then be allocated a mentor and have two 
online follow-up sessions to share your project progress and experiences.
 We welcome early career (as you choose to define it) researchers, 
artists, practitioners or anyone with a general interest in 
sustainability and emerging interdisciplinary projects. You must be 
based at one of these universities: Bournemouth University, Cardiff 
Metropolitan University, Cardiff University, University of Exeter, 
University of Bath, Bath Spa University, University of Bristol, 
University of Gloucestershire, University of Plymouth, University of the 
West of England or University of Wales Trinity Saint David. You should 
be keen to work in a multidisciplinary team, and willing to commit to 
attending the full sandpit, on both days. No prior experience of 
research funding is required.
 To secure your spot in the Sandpit, please complete and submit the 
following application by 24 January 2025 - note that all participants 
must commit to attending both full days in person:

staff based on participant disciplines and interests. If you have any 
queries, please don’t hesitate to contact Lyle or Catalin.
