项目摘要

This FoF proposal builds on two University of York research streams: a network grant, 'Creative Activism, Art and Development Alternatives' (AHRC/GCRF, AH/P006078/1), and an internal research strand on 'Political Forms' (Centre for Modern Studies). This work has developed a strong network of activists, artists and researchers in Bangladesh and Uganda; theoretical insights into the ways development alternatives and political ideas are revealed and contested in cultural forms; and methodological innovations in participatory arts practice and models for engaging artists in development work. The current proposal builds on the unexpected success, in the Creative Activism project, of street happenings/performances, public screenings and arts-based workshops for generating open discussion among diverse audiences on political issues and alternative approaches to development. A theory of change emerging from this work suggests that the arts can make space for critical thinking and exploration of political issues and alternative approaches to development in a way that somewhat mitigates the high levels of risk often associated with direct political speech, and contributes to building active citizenship and enhancing development outcomes. As such it aids in meeting the challenge spelt out in the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 16.7 on the need for responsible, inclusive, participatory and representative decision-making.This proposal involves collaboration with the development organisation ActionAid and LMIC-based cultural organisations. Workshops supported by the AHRC/GCRF award and subsequent discussions revealed a strong local desire to take collaboration with artists and researchers in new directions and test methodological innovations in the research with new audiences. We have worked closely with partners in developing this proposal to create a theory of change, shape activities, and highlight the following priorities:1) To further dissemination of the project's methodological innovations, and to test the methods with grassroots organisations and community groups. 2) To build on a commitment from the ActionAid training centre TCDC (Arusha, Tanzania) to integrate creative pedagogies in its new training programme and to run an artist-in-residence scheme.3) To test ideas emerging from the research, specifically relating to the impact of arts-based interventions such as residencies and public happenings.4) To support requests for training and advice on establishment of archives of art and politics in both Makerere and Chittagong. 5) To extend the reach of the project to audiences/users who do not speak fluent English, running events in Bangla and local languages in Uganda.To deliver on these priorities activities include support for the establishment of two interactive public archives; a cross-cultural creative labs initiative supporting artist exchanges; and local creative labs initiatives in Chittagong and Uganda. We will also adapt and test the innovative arts-based methodologies developed in the Creative Activism project in ActionAid local rights programmes, in collaboration with ActionAid's training centre (TCDC) in Arusha, Tanzania. Public engagement includes two public, interactive street art happenings - in Chittagong and Kampala. Dissemination will target relevant websites and toolkits, including revised versions of the ActionAid human rights-based approach handbook and the ActionAid web-based networked toolbox. This dissemination will reach the development sector beyond those involved in this project.These activities will produce a rich variety of outputs, including two funding proposals for archive development; two street art happenings; documentation of activities and process of collaboration; and a training programme and embeddable digital resources on using innovative arts-based methodologies with communities and activists.

FOF的这项建议建立在约克大学的两个研究流派之上：一个是网络拨款，名为“创造性的激进主义、艺术和发展替代方案”(AHRC/GCRF，AH/P006078/1)，另一个是关于“政治形式”的内部研究流派(现代研究中心)。这项工作在孟加拉国和乌干达形成了积极分子、艺术家和研究人员的强大网络；对以文化形式揭示和辩论发展备选方案和政治思想的方式有了理论上的见解；以及参与式艺术实践的方法创新和让艺术家参与发展工作的模式。目前的提案建立在创造性激进主义项目取得意外成功的基础上，包括街头活动/表演、公共放映和艺术讲习班，以在不同受众之间就政治问题和发展的替代办法进行公开讨论。从这项工作中产生的一种变革理论表明，艺术可以为批判性思考和对政治问题的探索以及发展的替代方法提供空间，在某种程度上减轻通常与直接政治言论相关的高风险，并有助于建立积极的公民身份和加强发展成果。因此，它有助于应对可持续发展目标(SDG)16.7中阐明的挑战，即需要负责任、包容、参与性和有代表性的决策。这项建议涉及与发展组织行动援助和以LMIC为基础的文化组织的合作。由AHRC/GCRF奖支持的讲习班和随后的讨论表明，当地强烈希望在新的方向上与艺术家和研究人员合作，并在新的受众中测试研究方法的创新。我们与合作伙伴密切合作制定了这项提案，以创建一种变革理论，塑造活动，并突出以下优先事项：1)进一步传播该项目的方法创新，并在基层组织和社区团体中测试这些方法。2)以行动援助培训中心TCDC(坦桑尼亚阿鲁沙)的承诺为基础，将创造性教学纳入其新的培训计划，并实施艺术家驻场计划。3)测试研究得出的想法，特别是与常驻和公共活动等注重艺术的干预措施的影响有关的想法。4)支持关于在马凯雷雷和吉大港建立艺术和政治档案的培训和咨询请求。5)将该项目扩大到英语不流利的受众/用户，用孟加拉语和乌干达当地语言举办活动。为实现这些优先事项，活动包括支持建立两个互动公共档案馆；支持艺术家交流的跨文化创意实验室倡议；以及吉大港和乌干达的当地创意实验室倡议。我们还将与坦桑尼亚阿鲁沙的行动援助培训中心(TCDC)合作，调整和测试在行动援助地方权利方案的创造性激进主义项目中开发的基于艺术的创新方法。公众参与包括两个公共的、互动的街头艺术活动--在吉大港和坎帕拉。将以相关网站和工具包为传播对象，包括《行动援助人权办法手册》修订版和《行动援助》基于网络的联网工具箱。这些活动将产生丰富多彩的成果，包括档案发展的两个供资提案；两个街头艺术事件；活动记录和合作进程；以及与社区和积极分子一起使用创新艺术方法的培训方案和可嵌入的数字资源。
