Everyone Here in West Cumbria: Culture, Ecology and Infrastructure (April 2026) focuses on one aspect of our work with the West Cumbria CPP programme, Everyone Here, which the University have been involved with from the initial conceptualisation and bidding phase in early 2020 through to the present (with Everyone Here now at the end of its first 4-year funding phase).
The report concerns issues of cultural infrastructure and cultural ecology in West Cumbria and how these relate to challenges faced by Everyone Here as it initially sought to established itself, and its subsequent work in influencing how both of those things - cultural infrastructure and ecology - have been confronted and renewed through the action research ethos that Everyone Here's practices bring into being.
