Details

The Racial Diversity UK programme aims to be broad in its reach, interested in questions of socio-economic equality, senses of place, belonging and identity, barriers to and opportunities for inclusion, demographic trajectories, and the interrelationship between these themes. Research may also address how the UK compares internationally. Race and ethnicity should be the central focus from which any intersectionality with class, disability, gender, place and other dynamics would be explored.

The Foundation takes a broad view of racial diversity as covering all racial or ethnic groups living in the UK, including White populations.

They expect the research they fund to:

• Contribute to understanding, public debate, policy and/or practice on tackling racial inequalities, discrimination and disadvantage.
• Map pathways towards a UK that is comfortable with and reaping the benefits of its growing racial diversity.

They welcome applications proposing any methodological approach, including applied methods and participatory research.

Where proposals to Racial Diversity UK overlap with the Foundation’s continuing interests in education, justice or welfare, the Foundation encourages applicants to contact them early to discuss which of the funding streams your application fits best with.
