Nuffield Foundation: Racial Diversity UK Fund

Our Racial Diversity UK Fund (RDUK) supports research on racial diversity within the UK. Grants from £15,000 to £500,000 are available.

Priority theme for 2026 applications: Inter-generational changes, continuities and challenges in racially diverse UK.

We are interested in: What generational shifts in outlooks, experiences and conditions mean for the potentials and challenges of the UK’s racially diverse future, in the context of its colonial past and a changing institutional, policy and political environment. This might include but would not be restricted to issues of:

  • Identities, belonging and exclusions

  • Aspirations and values

  • Civic and political participation

  • Life chances and experiences

Outline application deadline: 5 October 2026
