• Research Data Scotland - Public Engagement Fund

  Created: 2/1/2023
  
  

  Research Data Scotland's Public Engagement Fund will support projects in Scotland that engage with people on data research: to help the public understand the use of data in research, the benefits, and how it works.

  The aims of the fund are to:

  • Promote the public understanding of data research in Scotland
  • Provide balanced information on data research
  • Widen participation by involving and engaging members of the public who may not usually interact with science to take an interest and have a voice in data science
  • Achieve clear and measurable impact

  Funders are particularly interested in applications that will help improve understanding of the use of data in research to audiences that would not otherwise be aware of it, and/or creative ways of engaging with people.

  Who can apply

  Eligible organisations must be based in Scotland and include:

  • Public involvement/engagement professionals and/or researchers at accredited research organisations 
  • Registered charities
  • Schools
  • Museums and libraries

  How to apply

  When to apply

  Applications close on 24 February 2023.
