A new Delivery Plan – informed by consultations – sets out Arts & Humanities Research Council’s (AHRC) far-reaching ambitions for the next five years.
AHRC writes:
Our ambitious delivery plans outline how UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) will work with its partners to ensure that world-leading research and innovation continues to flourish in the UK. The 2019-20 Delivery Plans highlight the areas of focus and key activities of UKRI’s nine constituent councils and its cross-cutting themes.
The plans have been developed with input from across UKRI’s research and innovation communities and build upon the Strategic Prospectus, published in May 2018, which outlined UKRI’s vision, mission and values.
The UK is rightly seen as a global leader in arts and humanities research, research which deepens our understanding of ourselves and the world we live in. It is also central to our ability to participate in culture in all its various forms, to address complex contemporary challenges and to create economic prosperity in which everyone can share.
By turning the ideas in this Delivery Plan into reality, we will continue to enhance the UK’s global distinction in arts and humanities research and the value of that research to culture, society and the economy.
