2 weeks ago


Greenwich, United Kingdom University of Greenwich Full time

Researchers from the Centre for Creative Futures and Centre for Sustainable Design, within the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences, are collaborating on a project, ‘**New methodologies for collaborative and critical creative writing practices’, **which brings together insights, practices and research methods from both design and creative writing. Its aim is to work with a range of creative writing groups and communities to explore writing as a communal and collaborative activity and develop ways to contribute to the creation of collective and critical writing spaces.

**Main tasks for the Research Assistant**

We would like you to carry out online and desk research to identify:

- UK organisations / groups supporting / engaging in collaborative writing who might be interested in working with us. Examples of such companies may be writing groups, organisations that support creative writing activities in a variety of contexts, writing research groups in other universities or research organisations.
- literature relating to collaborative writing.

With regard to the above, the Research Assistant is expected to create summary documents within specific categories of interest:
(e.g., possible, probable, sure), and other relevant information.

b) titles, authors, dates, summary of contents, degree of relevance (e.g., possible, probable, sure), access details.

The Research Assistant will also be required to:
Attend weekly meetings (mostly online) to present work to core team and others.

Assist in creative writing workshops.

The role may expand to include additional responsibilities as the research project develops.

**Please refer to the person specification for further details.**
