Impact, Outcomes and Sustainability
This presentation was given by Adrian Ely, co-lead of the T2S PATHWAYS network, on 23 September 2018, during the 2018 Transformations to Sustainability workshop.
The 2018 workshop included a session on ‘Impact, outcomes and evaluation’, which had been suggested by members of the T2S research community partly in response to the challenges of monitoring and assessing the impact of their work. In addition, this was an opportunity for the T2S community to provide feedback to funders on their conceptions of impact and how to capture it. Ely stressed at the outset that experience of reporting on ‘impact’ within the UK was, of course, specific to that context, and that it would be important to hear more about experiences in other contexts during the later discussions on impact.
