Place is an important focus for current and future government research and development strategy. Place is also a research topic at the heart of many arts and humanities disciplines, from archaeology and architecture to history and literature. The Place-Based Research Programme, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, is designed to:

  • develop a programme around new and existing investments
  • demonstrate the effectiveness of arts and humanities research for addressing the needs of different locales
  • help to make the case for further investment.

The Programme works with 9 Arts and Humanities Research Council funded Knowledge Exchange Projects, details of which can be found below. These projects are designed to improve access to arts and humanities research expertise with a view to informing and supporting the development of plans for local regeneration.
