Marisol receives British Academy/Leverhulme Small Grant

Marisol Sandoval has been awarded a British Academy/Leverhulme Small Grant for her project Mapping Cultural Co-operatives. The project will investigate how worker co-ops operate in the UK cultural industries and whether they can contribute to improving work in the sector.

To map cultural co-ops in the UK, Marisol will on the one hand conduct an online survey with co-op members. On the other hand, the project will make use of video techniques to create an audio-visual account of practices of worker co-operation in the cultural industries.
