The Centre has recently participated in a successful funding application and the Climate Histories
Network has just received a grant from CRASSH to host an interdisciplinary
Climate Histories seminar series with sustainable engineering over the coming
academic year. The series will include invited speakers, discussion groups, and
the opportunity for graduate and post-graduate students to present their work
in progress. Anyone interested in finding out more information about the
series, or wanting to participate should contact Richard Irvine (rdgi2@cam.ac.uk).
This work will build on previous collaboration on the first phase of the Climate Histories Network that was funded by AHRC and ran from June 2010 and culminating in a Conference in January 2011. For further information see the Climate Histories Website.
This funding provides an excellent opportunity to further develop tangible links between Engineering, Social Anthropology and other departments and bring together researchers from a diverse range of backgrounds. The Co-Investigators for this project are Dr Barbara Bodenhorn (Social Anthropology) and Dr Heather Cruickshank (Engineering) with assistance from Libby Peachy (MIASU).
