Research Awards 2024 | Highlights

The Awards celebrate excellent research taking place across the University that addresses real-world problems using interdisciplinary approaches, is built on partnership and collaboration and engages a wide range of audiences.

Research engagement, collaboration and impact take many forms and this year entries were submitted to one of four categories: External Collaboration and Innovation, Interdisciplinary Research, Public Engagement with Research and Research Impact.

Each of the shortlisted projects described here addresses a significant challenge and engages individuals, organisations or communities to bring about positive change: from revitalising Ghana’s cocoa farming to safeguarding mobility for diversity via an LGBTQ+ travel tool. Disciplines represented in the shortlist include Classics, Crop Science, Education, English Literature, Environmental Science, International Development, Law and Meteorology.
