The Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarships Programme will provide a new cadre of 21 PhDs, equipped with a toolkit of methods that can be applied within their research and be applied to think through the likely consequences of their research. This toolkit will involve the analysis and application of the cradle-to-cradle (C2C) philosophy, circular economy, eco-innovation etc., married to intensive training in communication techniques– so that PhDs students are equipped to talk to boards, government, regulators and legislators and policymakers.
