Our mission is to promote interdisciplinary collaborations within the Faculty of Humanities, and between humanities scholars and colleagues across the University, and externally.

The HRI supports cross-disciplinary collaborations by running workshops and networking events, liaising with research centres and hosting visiting fellows.
