Abstract
First proposed in 2020 and supported by UCL’s Grand Challenge of Cultural Understanding, the UCL Enquiry on a Case for the Humanities set out to articulate and celebrate the value of the Humanities. This Enquiry places its emphasis on asking questions: it is not an official inquiry or inquest, nor a process designed to come up with a specific, single answer. It is, instead, a thoughtful search for insights, conducted in the spirit of the approach Humanities scholars take to their subjects. Liberated from the burden of serving any particular purpose or interest, those involved in the Enquiry set themselves the task of examining and expressing the vital role of the Humanities in a rapidly changing world.
