New ESRC IAA funding for the Robert Owen Centre

We are happy to announce that the Oscar Valiente and Queralt Capsada-Munsech have been successful in securing a Follow On Fund ESRC-IAA grant entitled “Engaging local and regional LLL policy makers in Glasgow City Region and Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire Region”, linked to the impact strategy of the H2020 YOUNG-ADULLLT. As the title implies, this funding will be used to engage policy makers and stakeholders in LLL policies in the mentioned Scottish regions.

The aim of this initial phase of the impact project is contact and inform from the beginning of the research project potential beneficiaries of the research outputs about the existence of the project and its research aims. We believe that doing so the results of the research will be more well-informed and linked to reality. Moreover, these activities will facilitate a larger impact of the research results on the regions under study. As part of this initial impact strategy, a specific website concerning the results of the YOUNG-ADULLLT project for the Scottish regions has already been launched. You can visit it at young-adulllt-scotland.org.
