New Funding Opportunities Now Ringfenced to Support Black Excellence

We’re excited to share an important update from the Black at Sussex Steering Group. As part of our commitment to expanding opportunity and ensuring that Black-led innovation thrives at Sussex, we have agreed to ringfence a dedicated portion of the Black at Sussex grant pot for three key areas:

• Guest Lecturers
  

• Research
  

• Black-led Organisations
  

This decision reflects our aim to open up greater spaces for Black academic and creative voices and to encourage more diverse applications to our programme.

By specifically supporting these categories, we want to make it clear: Black at Sussex is here to back Black-led work, Black intellectual traditions, and Black futures.

Further details about how to apply and guidance can be found on our funding request form here.

We want our community to know: the doors are open, and we are ready to invest in your work.

Stay connected. Stay inspired. Stay Black at Sussex.
