LAHRI Network Grants

LAHRI Network Grants support innovative interdisciplinary research. A successor scheme to the popular Sadler Seminar Series, they are managed by the Leeds Arts and Humanities Research Institute and offer a unique opportunity to build an interdisciplinary research network involving partners and collaborators within and beyond the University of Leeds and the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Cultures.

LAHRI Network Grants are seed funding and aim to allow networks to develop momentum so that they can form the basis for successful external funding bids in the future. These grants will foster the generation and development of new ideas and research agendas and provide a platform for ongoing exchange and collaboration.

LAHRI Network Grants each have three network leads, members of staff at the University of Leeds in a minimum of two different Schools, and one of whom must be based in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Cultures.

Applications are now open for LAHRI Network Grants 2026-27. You can find details of the scheme on LAHRI's SharePoint. The deadline is 21 October 2026.
