Partner with us to drive real-world change.

The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) is the UK’s main funder of research in economic, social, behavioural, and human data sciences. Through its Impact Acceleration Account (IAA), we’ve secured funding to help social science researchers at the University of Leeds collaborate with partners beyond academia.

What this means for you

• Work with cutting-edge social science research to tackle pressing problems
• Co-create solutions that have real impact in communities, policy, and beyond
• Access support, guidance, and funding to get your projects moving
• Collaborate in ways that work for you, across public, private, and third sectors

Detailed information for University of Leeds researchers, such as call closing dates and application documentation, can be found on our SharePoint site.  The IAA is designed to make research matter.  If you’d like to learn more, contact us on [email protected].
