Welcome

Come and do your PhD with us!

ChalleNGe and Co(l)laboratory are looking for applications for our PhD opportunity to  research how Nottingham's schools, community groups and arts organsiations celebrate and engage people with languages.

Co(l)laboratory is a new research programme that puts community knowledge and expertise at the core of research.  Our PhD project approaches language as a form of intangible cultural heritage which should be celebrated and promoted. 

We are looking for three new steering group members. 

We are particularly keen to receive applications from people who understand the value of creativity and culture for children, young people, to their families, communities and local places. You may work for a business, charity, school or support organisation (as a creative practitioner, director, administrator or in a governance role.)

To apply to join the Steering group, please email cathy.mahmood@ntu.ac.uk with a covering letter outlining your interest and experience by Mon 4th December 2023.

We are actively looking for new members to join our Youth Cultural Partnership, (Connecting Notts) to represent arts organisations and sixth forms across Nottingham. 

Each meeting includes a guest from the cultural world or local organisations - sharing what is happening and providing the opportunity to give feedback on ideas as well as workshops and discussions on issues brought by the members of the group.

We focus on supporting arts organisations to be more inclusive and welcoming to young people from all backgrounds.  Complete the simple application form now to express your interest, and come along to our next meeting!
