AHRC Impact Accelerator Account Funding

The 澳门六合彩开奖记录’s Impact Accelerator Account (IAA) funded by the AHRC, aims to expand the impact of its research in the Arts and Humanities, in relation to both local contexts and national and international imperatives.

An important element of Reading’s IAA is the Impact Project Fund. The objective of the fund is to invest in early stages of work in the impact pipeline, to facilitate understanding of the challenges groups are facing, and investigate how the 澳门六合彩开奖记录’s research can help to address those. It is designed to allow us to rapidly respond to emerging needs and new opportunities to develop impact. Successful applications to the Fund will enable researchers to enhance the impact of their research, to undertake impact and engagement activities, and develop partnerships with external stakeholders.

Applications to the Fund are invited from anyone working in the AHRC remit. Please see the , for detail on which areas fall within the remit of the AHRC. Applications for a range of amounts up to the total of £6,000 will be accepted. Projects requiring larger amounts will be considered on a case-by-case basis. If you require urgent impact funding support outside of the Impact Project Fund calls, please contact the Impact Development Officer, Domonique Davies (d.e.davies@reading.ac.uk) for information about the ad hoc funding pathway.

If you have an impact project idea and it does not fit under the remit of the AHRC, please contact your relevant Impact Development Manager for a discussion around how your work can be supported. Please also note the RECF (Research Collaboration and Impact Fund, formerly REKEC) that is available across all Research Themes.

AHRC IAA funds can be used to pay for research and support staff time, teaching buyout, travel, consumables, and other direct costs. Examples of eligible activity include:

  • Networking activities (e.g., hosting extended meetings; bringing together non-academic beneficiaries/ external partners)
  • Workshops
  • Engagement events with non-academic partners (e.g., conferences; symposiums)
  • Travel to partners to develop relationships
  • Creation of resources (e.g., teaching resources for schools, training materials, creative outputs)

The activities should enable applicants to progress research outputs towards the next stages in the impact pipeline. Activities should be conducted with non-academic partners or actively engage with non-academic partners to ensure opportunities for impact are maximised. Please note that this fund cannot be used for:

  • New research Impact activities costed as part of basic research proposals
  • Duplication of other sources of funding Indirect or estates costs
  • Any costs relating to IP (intellectual property)
  • Equipment with a value of £10,000 or more
  • Undergraduate or postgraduate activities or training; core PhD training or contribution to fees
  • Contributions to KTPs
