Research & Findings
The majority of the Programme’s £12 million budget is funding successful research bids by UK-based academics. Research covers a wide range of topics, and looks at religion and society in the UK and beyond.
In this part of the website (under 'Projects') you can browse and read about any of the 75 projects funded by the Programme and their findings as they become available. Interesting findings from projects are previewed as 'Featured Findings'.
The sub-section on 'Themes' will provide a more focused and integrated analysis of the projects under different headings as the Programme progresses, and the 'State of the Art Report' will be posted in 2012.
