The Royal College of Art, in partnership with South East Technological University, is seeking a proactive Network Coordinator to support the operational delivery of an innovative AHRC-funded research initiative. Connecting Early Career Researchers (ECRs) and museum and gallery practitioners across the UK and Ireland, this project explores participatory cultural production through Collaborative Equality Research Laboratories, shared workshops, and reciprocal mobility visits.
