Seedcorn funding

The Centre runs a seedcorn funding competition each year to support the development of new research ideas relevant to digital trust.

Each year, we aim to fund around four projects that further our research and understanding of digital trust and society.

These could be small research projects, scoping reviews and pilot studies, workshops, symposia, research seminars/presentations, or staff exchanges and other collaborative relationship development.

The fund is open to proposals from across all disciplines.

Projects should fit broadly within one or more of the six research clusters that make up the Centre and must be clearly relevant to digital trust.

Timeline 

     Call for proposals opens:  7 October 2024

     Deadline for submission: 5pm, 4 November 2024

     Applicants notified: By the end of November 2024

     Project start date: Anytime from 1 December 2024 but must be completed by 31 July 2024.
