The PARTICIPATE Research Cluster has been shortlisted for the Inclusive Research Culture Award as part of this year’s Research & Knowledge Exchange Awards at Leeds Beckett University.
The judging panel particularly recognised the inclusive and supportive research community the cluster has developed, with one judge describing PARTICIPATE as a truly transformative cluster that provides opportunities for researchers across different disciplines and career stages to participate and develop.
Another described the cluster as an excellent model for others to follow, recognising the impressive range of activities and support available to members. The panel also highlighted the positive impact on emerging researchers and the commitment you’ve shown in developing the cluster, particularly given the work you’ve undertaken without formally allocated time.
