How can you get a Ph.D.Scholarship?

Every two weeks or so I am meeting up with my Ph.D supervisors to talk about my research topic. At out last meeting, we finalise my research question...

2 Years ago, 1 month after starting my new job, 3 month after finishing my studies, it was clear for me that I wanted to go back to academia. I set up myself to gain a bit of experience and look for a new job.

18 month ago, I had two interviews, one for a knowledge transfer partnership leading to Ph.D with Birmingham City University and one for a Ph.D with Cranfield University on Sustainability and Communications. Deep inside it was not really what I was looking for.

12 month ago, I almost gave up finding the Ph.D. Then, I changed my mind. I systematically send emails to to find the gap where I could jump in

9 month ago I applied for Design Star with the intention to investigate how design for sustainable behaviour and eco-design will contribute to the concept of the Circular Economy.

2 month ago, I started my Ph.D

1 month ago, after a lot of reading on my research area, I figure than my initial questions did not fit with my interest in social innovation, activism, marketing, community building etc. I was lost.

Now, It is clearer.

The research question is

How to foster social innovation through sustainable behaviour and/or the re-use and remanufacture of household waste?

What do you reckon?
