Grant 13/09: BCE, e-Content and Digitisation programmes: Developing Community Content
As you have probably seen, JISC has frozen its current and future funding calls for ‘capital-funded’ projects but not ‘core-funded’ projects: http://www.jisc.ac.uk/news/stories/2010/01/funding.aspx
JISC Business and Community Engagement is a core-funded programme.
However, the current BCE and e-Content Call Developing Community Content draws its funds from both capital and core funding: http://www.jisc.ac.uk/fundingopportunities/funding_calls/2009/12/1309bce.aspx
For those planning Strand I bids (Rapid user innovation), the call is still open and JISC will still be expecting proposals by 8th February.
For those planning Strand II bids (Co-development of content), the call is currently frozen. JISC is expecting the funding situation, for this and other calls, to become clearer by the end of January or the start of February. Applicants within affected strands are advised to put their proposals on ice for the moment, and await further information. There will be greater clarity at the start of February.
If you have further queries, please address them to funding@jisc.ac.uk.
JISC has also prepared some questions and answers.
