The purpose of ACTOR Research-Creation Project Funding was to encourage innovative research-creation projects by members of the ACTOR project that could lead to external funding opportunities, joint publication, musical compositions/premieres/recordings, new modules for the TOR, and/or other public presentations of ACTOR research. Creative projects with an interdisciplinary focus, relevant to the ACTOR project’s mandate, were given priority. One of the main goals of this funding opportunity was to provide paid opportunities for students and artists in vulnerable positions due to the COVID-19 crisis.
