Public Map Receives £3.1m to Continue its Work

We are delighted to announce that, along with the other three Green Transitions Ecosystems projects, Public Map has been awarded a further £3.1m by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) to continue our work over the next 2 ½ years.

Whilst the focus of our work remains on Ynys Môn, this new funding will enable the team to expand its activities beyond the island to other parts of Wales and into England. A further £300k has also been committed by Cambridge University to support mapping activity in and around Cambridge through the Cambridge Room.

AHRC Executive Chair, Professor Christopher Smith, said:

“We are delighted that the Green Transition Ecosystems have been renewed for a second phase. Each project demonstrates the power of design in convening stakeholders across communities, sectors and disciplines to intervene in systemic green transition challenges. In their second phase, the projects will focus on delivering outcomes for future sustainable growth.”
