All projects must include some elements from the arts and humanities. This can consist, for example, in the involvement of researchers, approaches or methodologies from relevant academic disciplines (like history, social anthropology, law or media studies), the use of arts-based or other creative research methods for data generation and dissemination, or the involvement of project partners with arts and humanities expertise.
Please see the AHRC Research Funding Guide for information about what disciplines are included within the arts and humanities (pp. 86 – 96).
We particularly encourage the use of arts-based and creative research methods, and provide training videos with examples on how to conduct such research. We also advertise training events through our newsletter.
