The aim of European Literatures and Gender from Transnational Perspective (EUTERPE) is to develop a new approach to rethinking European cultural production in the light of current complex social and political negotiations that are shaping European spaces and identities.
This project accelerates development of technologies that deliver zero tailpipe emissions, saving 43million tonnes of CO2, while also unlocking £53m of UK investment (6x ROI) and creating 114 jobs.
The project seeks to explore the embodied experience of creating a digital dance archive and collaborate with the development of digital archives in the performing arts.
This research will explore young people’s (aged 18-24) lived experience of borrowing, their use of credit and perceptions of their current (and of their future) financial vulnerability. Young people will actively participate in designing solutions to reduce their financial vulnerability.
This research project is designed to explore the impact of the Chatty Café Services. To explore how people perceive these services, the difference they make in people’s lives and to understand if there are ways in which these services can be improved.
The BBC, in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), are celebrating their centenary year with a series of new public engagement research projects, recently announced. This programme of activities seeks to connect the public with the BBC’s past, present and future. Coventry University are pleased to have been awarded funding to explore the BBC’s work in televising dance, looking at the impact of Strictly Come Dancing on public audiences and its recent focus on inclusion through dance.
This project focuses on how transitional justice and reconciliation mechanisms and processes interplay and how this interrelationship works in practice across different contexts.
This two-year programme builds on existing research networks around peacebuilding, conflict transformation, gender, environment, climate change, and sustainability. It draws on expertise from Madagascar, Europe and the UK.
This project explores the importance of, and barriers to, multi-actor crisis information sharing in UK subsea infrastructure security, developing a prototype crisis information sharing framework in times of significant stress.
SCALE-it is working to increase the availability, accessibility and adoption of cost-effective alternatives to contentious inputs in organic farming.
Food systems contribute one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions, prompting urgent calls for a radical transformation of diets to include a greater proportion of plant proteins.
This research seeks to better understand how the pluralism of threats and actors within the maritime security landscape interact between then and manifest themselves primarily as ‘smuggling and trafficking of persons’ in Indonesia.
Black Lives Matter protests following the murder of George Floyd spread quickly in 2020 to include many cities and towns outside the United States.

Given Rwanda’s hilly topography, water supply systems require significant pumping to move water from valleys to hilltops. This leads to high electricity and diesel costs, and in many remote areas, intermittent power supply causes frequent water shortages. Consequently, water provision is often expensive and unreliable.
The TASHREE project, which translates to "proposing legislation" in Arabic, is a transformative initiative designed to build on the foundational successes of its predecessors: TAMKEEN (empowering) and TASHBEEK (networking).
The goal of the project is to identify and subsequently characterise the dsRNA dimension of the animal gut microflora (both the differential presence of antisense bound to mRNA and phage dsRNAs containing novel genetic information in response to AB pressure). Identification of novel functional dsRNAs (asRNA bound to its target and phage dsRNAs involved in AR) will mark a paradigm shift in our understanding of the development of AR and future approaches to treating infections.
