项目摘要

This fellowship intends to develop a body of research and academic expertise which contributes to how we can understand and assess the effectiveness of community arts/heritage programmes on urban communities. This process begins with publishing two pieces of research from my PhD which will provide examples of how arts/heritage programmes have affected residents from the Robin Hood Gardens estate in East London. The first will explore how different forms of arts and heritage led regeneration have contributed to the changing representation of the estate and how it has impacted its demolition. This provides an important case study which will add to academic discussions which explore the emotional and physical impacts surrounding the destruction of home, and how this is linked to wider debates within regeneration policy. The second will focus on developing a range of investigative social science methods and a research framework which can be used by researchers to creatively assess the material and social impacts of arts/heritage interventions on other urban communities.These activities will be developed further by undertaking a research project in Hull, which will generate a discussion around two community arts groups (Absolutely Cultured & Back to Ours) and their role in improving arts access and local 'liveability'. Drawing upon interviews, focus groups, policy analysis and ethnography it will address calls within academic literature that seek to understand and demonstrate the effectiveness of arts/heritage focused engagement programmes. This research is significant, especially five years after the 2017 City of Culture, as it will explore the wide variety of arts/heritage regeneration schemes that have attempted to address local social and cultural deprivation since. It therefore builds on my previous work by extending its focus to community arts/heritage projects in Hull, while also exploring opportunities for policy intervention that can improve local wellbeing and quality of life.The research generated from these activities will then be shared through several different approaches, firstly the publications from the PhD will contribute to paper sessions at two major geography conferences (The American Association of Geographers Conference & The RGS-IBG Urban Geography Research Group Annual Conference). This will allow me to gather feedback on the projects research and bring Cultural Geography and Urban Studies into closer dialogue over how arts engagement can impact cities. Secondly, the data from the research project will produce a series of blog posts on the fellowship's website, an infographic, and a policy brief. The last two of these will be generated in partnership with Absolutely Cultured, Back to Ours and participants from the focus groups. By developing a policy brief the project will connect community arts and heritage programmes with the wider national levelling up agenda and will extend current cultural policy beyond short term economic and aesthetic considerations.Woven through each of these activities will be range of knowledge exchange and academic development opportunities. This will include teaching three guest lectures based on my current research, co-supervising three third year dissertations, as well as some limited administrative responsibilities. This will develop my range of academic skills and ensure that I am able to share the knowledge generated throughout the fellowship to university students through research informed teaching.Each of these fellowship activities will facilitate the application of my existing research to a set of contemporary societal issues and academic debates, this will allow me to advance towards my chosen career, alongside providing tangible benefits to Hull residents, local government, and community arts/heritage groups in the city.

该奖学金旨在发展一系列的研究和学术专业知识，这有助于我们如何理解和评估社区艺术/遗产计划对城市社区的有效性。这个过程始于发布我的博士学位的两项研究，这些研究将提供有关艺术/遗产计划如何影响伦敦东部罗宾汉花园庄园的居民的例子。第一个将探讨不同形式的艺术和遗产领导的再生如何促进遗产的不断变化的代表以及其如何影响其拆除。这提供了一项重要的案例研究，该研究将增加学术讨论，探讨围绕家庭破坏的情感和身体影响，以及如何与再生政策中的更广泛的辩论有关。 The second will focus on developing a range of investigative social science methods and a research framework which can be used by researchers to creatively assess the material and social impacts of arts/heritage interventions on other urban communities.These activities will be developed further by undertaking a research project in Hull, which will generate a discussion around two community arts groups (Absolutely Cultured & Back to Ours) and their role in improving arts access and local 'liveability'.借助访谈，焦点小组，政策分析和人种志，它将解决学术文献中的呼吁，以了解和证明以艺术/遗产为中心的参与计划的有效性。这项研究非常重要，尤其是在2017年文化之城五年之后，它将探索各种各样的艺术/遗产再生计划，这些计划从那以后试图解决当地的社会和文化剥夺。 It therefore builds on my previous work by extending its focus to community arts/heritage projects in Hull, while also exploring opportunities for policy intervention that can improve local wellbeing and quality of life.The research generated from these activities will then be shared through several different approaches, firstly the publications from the PhD will contribute to paper sessions at two major geography conferences (The American Association of Geographers Conference & The RGS-IBG Urban Geography Research Group Annual Conference).这将使我能够收集有关项目研究的反馈，并将文化地理和城市研究带入有关艺术参与如何影响城市的更紧密对话。其次，研究项目的数据将在奖学金的网站，信息图和政策摘要上创建一系列博客文章。其中的最后两个将与绝对文化的伙伴关系生成，回到我们的焦点小组的参与者和参与者。通过制定政策摘要，该项目将将社区艺术和遗产计划与更广泛的国家升级议程联系起来，并将当前的文化政策扩展到短期的经济和审美考虑。通过这些活动中的每一个将是知识交流和学术发展机会的范围。这将包括根据我目前的研究教授三个来宾讲座，共同审议三年级的论文以及一些有限的行政责任。这将发展我的学术技能范围，并确保我能够通过研究知情教学与大学生分享整个团契中产生的知识。这些奖学金活动将有助于将我现有的研究应用于一系列当代社会问题和学术辩论，这将使我能够促进我选择的职业，并为赫尔居民提供有形的居民政府和社区群体，并为城市提供社区和社区艺术群体，并提供了社区群体，并促进了社区和社区的艺术群体，并促进了社区和社区的攻击。
