Summary on Grant Application Form
The Sustainable Urban Environments (SUE) programme currently funds a range of consortia projects under four clusters addressing different aspects of sustainable urban development (Urban and Built Environment; Waste, Water and Land Management; Transport; and Metrics, Knowledge Management and Decision Making). Following a proposal for such an event emanating from the EPSRC IEP Conference in January 2004 and detailed discussions with Peter Hedges of EPSRC, a conference for the Research Fellows/Associates working in each of the consortia is proposed to bring these different research streams into dialogue. The conference is to be hosted by the University of Birmingham (UoB) and the University of Central England (LICE), who are jointly researching urban sustainability issues using the major regeneration programme in Birmingham's Eastside as a case study. The conference is to last for three days and incorporates a half-day dissemination seminar for the current Birmingham Eastside project, a halfday session for the IEP and SUE programmes, and two days dedicated to the research fellows, with posters and conference presentations both included. There will be RF training in poster, conference paper and journal paper presentation inherent within the process.
