We are pleased to inform that following a competitive assessment process, Professor Jenny Wüstenberg of Nottingham Trent University (United Kingdom) has been appointed as Knowledge Exchange Facilitator – complementing the ten projects successfully funded under the CHANSE & HERA  joint call on Crisis: Perspectives from the Humanities.  

Professor Wüstenberg will lead a three and a half year knowledge exchange programme, titled “Knowledge Exchange for Slow Hope” (KESH), which will bring together researchers, HERA funders and external stakeholders across Europe to support communication and collaboration, provide training, and nurture strong cohort relationships to create foundations for future partnerships. This will include the organisation of two multinational conferences which will bookend the duration of these successful projects. The Knowledge Exchange Facilitator will endeavour to make the case for the positive and creative potential of the humanities in the current moment through spotlighting excellence in research and engaging with key European and national policy forums.
