Applying to Nuffield Funding: Supporting Black Researchers

By Nuffield Foundation

The Nuffield Foundation hosted a dedicated webinar guiding Black researchers through our funding process.

Black researchers remain underrepresented across the UK research community, including within the Foundation’s applicants and grant holders. Accessing funding and navigating research opportunities can be challenging for underrepresented groups, limiting the diversity of voices shaping the future of research.

The Nuffield Foundation is committed to being a more inclusive funder and enabling greater representation in social research. To support more equitable access to our funding opportunities, we hosted a webinar for Black researchers. This session provided an overview of our funding programmes, insight into our application and assessment processes, and opportunities for attendees to discuss their ideas with the programme team.   

What did this webinar include?

  • How to apply, and the dos and don’ts of a successful funding proposal
  • Information on the types of research we fund
  • Our peer review, assessment and decision-making process
  • Audience Q&A
