This introductory course provides participants with the skills and confidence the need to embed impact in their research. We take a relational approach to impact, giving participants specific tools to help them develop targeted, two-way relationships based on trust, which can lead to long-term benefits from their research. The course is underpinned by five principles that emerged from the team’s empirical research, and refined with knowledge exchange experts and research funders.
The course starts by outlining these principles, and then gets participants to explore and supplement these with principles of their own, which they extract from stories about their own experiences of engaging in knowledge exchange activities.
