ESRC Festival of Social Sciences: 19th Oct - 9th Nov 2024

As part of the Economic and Social Research Council’s (ESRC) Impact Acceleration Award (IAA), the University of Liverpool is participating in the UK-wide Festival of Social Science (FoSS) to engage and connect the public with social, economic and behavioural science research through a series of events from 19 October – 9 November, 2024. Read more about last years’ events here.

The University’s FoSS Planning Team would like to hear from anyone that has an idea to run their own event or activity. These events must take place within the festival time period but may take place anywhere e.g. off campus or online.They can be based on any topic relating to the economic and social science remit but we particularly welcome proposals that fit this year’s festival theme ‘Our Digital Lives’. For more information, please check out our funding page.

The same opportunity will be available in 2025, 2026 and 2027. We welcome expressions of interest for multi-year event/projects or plans for future years, which could present an exciting opportunity for increased impact development.

All details and documents may be found on the festival webpage

Please return completed Expressions of Interest to Stephanie Hayton via shayton@liverpool.ac.uk by 5pm Monday 10th June.

It is encouraged that those interested in proposing an event book to attend a Public Engagement Clinic session with Dr Stephanie Hayton, University Public Engagement Officer, in the first instance. You can find more information and contacts details here.
