Economic and social research council: Innovation in Social Care Collaborative Grants

Funds social science-led research and knowledge exchange activity to understand how, why and where innovation happens in social care, to best understand how to improve people’s lives.

Proposals should reflect the reality of how social care is experienced by care recipients and providers, their friends and families, and care professionals, as well as exploring the relationships between those involved.

Funding: between £1 million and £2 million (at 100% full economic cost), with a duration of up to 60 months.

Principal investigators (PIs) must be based at a UK institution eligible for research council funding, however UK co-investigators can be from business, the third sector, or government organisations, and academic co-investigators can be based anywhere in the world.
