This year the ESRC celebrates five
decades of
supporting world-class social science
research. Over the last 50 years our
research
has helped change the world, providing
deep
insights into key social and economic
questions.
Social science research plays a vital role
in
our society. From big ideas to the most
detailed observations, social science
affects
us all every day - at work, in school or
college,
within our communities, when exploring
our
identities and expressing our beliefs.
This year we're challenging you to take a
picture that shows how you see society.
How
do you feel you fit in; what affects your
daily
life; what do you think of your ethnicity,
religion, background or simply where you
live?
The Focus on Society competition is an
opportunity to be creative by using
photography to explore the relevance of
social
science to your life. Your photo should
fall into
one of the five categories . In addition to
your
image we'd also like you to supply an
imaginative title and explain the social
science
behind it in a supporting statement of up
to
100 words.
Closing date for entries is 23.00 on 11
December 2015 .
