Network support: Mediatization of everyday life and culture

Researchers outside the area group Mediatization of everyday life and culture are invited to apply for funding for new networks.

The area group "The medialization of everyday life and culture" has taken the initiative for research overviews, which are available at rj.se. It has also conducted a number of conferences and workshops with the participation of researchers from Sweden and the rest of the Nordic countries, as well as various types of practitioners.

But there is room for further ideas. In order to enable initiatives for research and research collaborations, researchers outside the area group are invited to apply for funds for new networks. Applications must be concise and sent to research secretary Maria Wikse, maria.wikse@rj.se.

The grant is a maximum of SEK 150,000 per year for a maximum of three years. No salary funds are granted. Through the network grants, RJ wishes to increase researchers' opportunities for new, flexible research collaborations, promote the establishment of interdisciplinary research environments and increase mobility.

The networks must always include researchers in the humanities and social sciences, but may also include other subjects. They must include both junior and senior researchers and may include participants from several higher education institutions. Anyone applying for a grant must have a doctorate.
