    Brief

    The Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Curiosity Award supports early-stage, innovative fundamental research in arts and humanities that can establish new research directions. This flexible funding opportunity is designed to support idea development, researcher networking, and partnership creation. It welcomes applications from individual researchers, collaborative teams, and research networks working in single disciplines, interdisciplinary fields, or practice-based research. Funding is available to help researchers explore promising but unproven concepts that could lead to significant future research programs.
