Dr Gilmore is Principal Investigator on this project, 'Know-how and Knowledge: a research toolkit for creative organisations', working with Celia Duffy from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
The project follows on from research funded by the AHRC Cultural Value programme which identified a need for small- and medium-sized organisations in the creative and cultural industries to have resources enabling them to conduct research to develop their audience, participation and programmes.
The project will co-create a qualitative research toolkit in the form of a website for audience/consumer/participant research with and for small- and medium-sized creative organisations. This co-creation process will include Creative Scotland, its clients and potential clients, other funders, charities, policymakers and academics. This includes nine named partner organisations who will actively take part in research on their own practices in relation to audience development in order to inform the toolkit.
