Welcome to ‘Creating Our Future Histories’, a new collaborative skills-training programme hosted by MMU’s Institute of Humanities and Social Science Research (IHSSR) and funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).
The programme, which consists of a series of practice-led workshops and other group activities, is led by Professors Melanie Tebbutt and Berthold Schoene. It is designed to assist early-career academics and local Manchester-based community organisations in the development of their partnership-building skills. The main aim of the programme is to set up actual public-academic research partnerships.
There are 7 research groups within the project. The groups are listed below:
- Ancoats Dispensary Trust
- Dance Manchester
- Greater Manchester Centre for Voluntary Organisation
- Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People
- Greater Manchester District Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament
- Moss Side Millennium Powerhouse
- My Community UK
