NCACE What We Are Doing And How To Get Involved

The National Centre for Academic and Cultural Exchange (NCACE) is a project led by The Culture Capital Exchange (TCCE) and supported by Research England. The key purpose of NCACE is to facilitate and support capacity for Knowledge Exchange between Higher Education and the arts and cultural sector across the country with a particular focus on evidencing and showcasing the social, cultural, environmental, as well as the economic, impacts of such activities. NCACE is delivered in collaboration with our regional hub partners: Bath Spa University, Birmingham City University, Manchester Metropolitan University and Northumbria University.

This online session provides an informal opportunity to hear an overview of recent NCACE research into arts and cultural sector perspectives on collaborating with higher education institutions, case studies on the benefits and challenges of cultural knowledge exchange from Opera North and Cap a Pie and find out what’s coming up from NCACE and how to get involved.
