Thinking of applying for LRG research funding? Join our 2024 cohort showcase
Thursday 30 April, 1–2pm BST, Online
Hear directly from funded researchers on 30 April as they share their projects and reflect on the LRG funding process.
The Landscape Research Group will host an online Research Funding Showcase on Thursday 30 April, 1–2pm BST, featuring presentations from the 2024 funded cohort.
The session centres on the projects themselves, with each researcher presenting their work and outlining its focus, context and development.
The showcase highlights a range of international research topics, including peatland value, climate adaptation in Himalayan contexts, water scarcity in Morocco, and urban energy systems.
Following the presentations, there will be an open Q&A, providing an opportunity for those considering applying to the LRG Research Fund to ask questions about both the research and the funding experience.
