2023/2024 (second round)

CALL FOR RESEARCH & TEACHING WORKSHOPS 2023/24 [second round]

 

The Manchester Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence (JMCE) is a partnership between the University of Manchester (UoM), Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) and the Europe and the World Centre (EWC) at the University of Liverpool (UoL). We strive to strengthen the intellectual community in European Studies (broadly defined), while also facilitating local and regional links with practitioners, researchers, students and others interested in European affairs. Further details about the centre’s activities can be found on our website: http://www.manchesterjmce.ac.uk/

The Manchester JMCE is now inviting proposals for the funding of seminars and workshops to be held in the academic year 2023/24. We welcome applications for research as well as teaching events. The maximum amount for each bid is £1,000, with no preference given to bids that request the maximum or less than the maximum. Multidisciplinary and cross-institutional proposals are encouraged because of the Centre’s nature, but there are no formal restrictions upon applications. In recent years the JMCE has supported workshops, seminar series and European-themed sessions at large conferences that are being hosted at one of the stakeholder institutions. For details on previous events, please visit our website.

With regards to teaching and learning bids, the centre is keen to fund projects which develop students’ understanding of and engagement with European issues. This could be, for instance, by inviting a guest speaker (academic/policymaker/NGO) to give a lecture to students, by improving student engagement with European institutions, by facilitating links with European minority groups in Manchester and the North West of England.

Projects funded through this call should take place before the 31st of July 2024.
