British Academy Knowledge Frontiers, climate action with the AHRC, Volkswagen Foundation, eco-humanities crossover

A roundup of this week’s Funding Insight articles

This week Funding Insight presents a trio of articles on projects and funding schemes at the interface of humanities or social science research and environmental science. We open with an interview with one of this year’s winners of the British Academy’s Knowledge Frontiers: International Interdisciplinary Research programme, which is slated to return later this year. We follow that with a profile of the Arts and Humanities Research Council’s Engaging Young People with Climate Research scheme and round things off with an archive selection featuring an eco-humanities project which triumphed in the AHRC’s Early Career Research Grant scheme. Finally we also hear how Germany’s Volkswagen Foundation is supporting research on the challenges of supporting Europe’s ageing population.
