About the event
We were pleased to invite Members and Expert Fellows to apply to attend our blended sandpit on TIPS and Resilient Futures.
Sandpit outputs
Up to £162k of SPRITE+ funding has been made available to fund up to five interdisciplinary projects arising from this sandpit. In addition, successful projects will be eligible to bid for a subsequent larger grant from SALIENT as part of their project.
Funding might cover the costs of conducting scoping studies, research engagement with organisations and/or the public, feasibility studies, and demonstrators. The aim is to explore promising ‘proof of concept’ ideas that could be developed into a second stage, more ambitious funding proposal from SALIENT funds.
