Advance HE is partnering with the University of Liverpool and the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) on a new project funded by Research England.
There is an ongoing drive for more inclusivity in team-led research across the HE sector, accompanied by a demand for more diversity in leadership voices. This project aims to develop a clear understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with team-based research. The aim is to overcome the limitations imposed by existing models and foster an environment that encourages a wider range of perspectives and experiences.
A new Thrive project team will bring together colleagues from across higher education institutions and a range of funding organisations to actively engage and provide evidence that will help establish criteria for best practice in team-based working.
In partnership with colleagues from Advance HE and AHRC, the project is being led by Professor Georgina Endfield, Professor Antony Hollander, Dr Sarah Jackson, Dr Jane Rees and Dr James Howard from the University of Liverpool. It will result in the co-development of a new convenor model that will be trialled through a pilot funding call.
