Applications are invited to address the human-infrastructure interactions of the world’s most marginalised urban residents, specifically in the context of the wide variety of crises and changes that they face. The Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) are a partner in this call which is being led by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) on behalf of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).

The aim of (Re)Thinking the Off-Grid City is to support cutting-edge inter-disciplinary research with a view towards creating actionable policy and programming alternatives, engineering solutions and/or social innovations.

Conceptually the call also offers the opportunity to re-think and explore the concept of cities, especially in the context of growing urban populations that are not fully on the formal grid.

Closing Date: 30/05/2019
