ARCIO brings together a number of strands of research and teaching in the Department of Management at the University of Bristol and beyond.

We are committed to researching in participative and capacity-building ways in organisations and communities, and are interested in projects which focus on sustainability, social justice, gender, and inclusivity.

We are also committed to using arts-based, narrative, and feminist methods in our research and scholarship, and to working with groups and organisations who are interested in taking a critical stand on research and development projects.

The Centre’s activities include research, scholarship and practice around the areas mentioned above. We run a biennial conference, workshops, seminars and discussion groups. Details of these can be found on our events page.
