The Making an Impact series has been designed around a framework of Knowledge Exchange  ‘lenses’, on impact in cultural, health science, public policy, economic, industrial, digital, environmental and third sectors. The KirkPatrick model of evaluation assesses long term outcomes and feeds into programme design.

Equity, accessibility and inclusivity is central to the Series, which provides a mixture of live sessions delivered by internal and external experts across research-related academic, administrative and industry stakeholder roles, augmented with asynchronous materials on a dedicated Resource Hub.

The Series plays a significant role in creating new connections, impactful collaboration and a culture of innovation.
