Building a network of knowledge
The mission of the CCIR Think Tank is to promote public intellectual life by connecting the public with the brightest minds in academia today. Our goal is to maximize the impact of knowledge.
Supporting Researchers
The CCIR Fellowship gives early career researchers the opportunity to share their ideas and make a real impact on the public.
Sharing Knowledge
CCIR’s podcasts give academics working on cutting-edge issues a platform to engage with a broader audience
Inspiring Students
The Re:think essay competition and our Public Lecture Initiative inspire high-schoolers to engage with intellectual life by connecting them with the leading academics of today
Academics can often feel like they are in a trap of talking among themselves. Though the issues that they work on are often of immense significance, and yet their work fails to reach a broader audience.
The aim of this fellowship is to provide funding and support for early-career academics — to help them become public intellectuals.
Our Fellows (2021 - 2022)
CCIR’s public lecture initiative aims to bring our partnered Oxbridge faculty to high schools around the world. Our faculty hail from a wide array of disciplines and they are all leaders of their fields, working at the cutting edge of academic research.
The aim of this initiative is to connect the leading scholars with the brightest young minds of today—to disseminate academic knowledge, inspire public discourse and debate, and to cultivate and spark the intellectual passions of our next generation of thinkers and citizens.
As a non-profit initiative, our lectures will be provided free of charge for your students. The lectures will be conducted online, via Zoom, and will be recorded and subsequently posted on CCIR’s YouTube and Apple Podcast page.
If you would like to consider including your school or university on our lecturing circuit, please schedule a meeting with our team using the Calendly portal, or email our outreach director, Oliver, at oliver@cambridge-research.org.
