Training: Impact Through Engagement
Part 1: Monday 9th December 2024, 1pm – 4pm, MS0.2 (Zeeman)
Part 2: Tuesday 10th December 2024, 9.30am – 12.30pm (OC1.09, Oculus)
This is one workshop split over two sessions – please attend both.
Delivered by Dr Jamie Gallagher, an award-winning engagement professional, this workshop will help you to explore the impact landscape and uncover how to plan, deliver, and report on external engagement projects.
Researchers are increasingly driven to demonstrate impact beyond the academic – but how do you achieve this demonstrable real-world change? This session will take you through the key planning stages from grant application to reporting and will show you how to maximise your engagement.
Whether you are new to engagement or looking to get new perspectives on what you can do to improve, this workshop will help you plan for engagement with the public, stakeholders, or policy makers. At the end of the workshop participants will be able to:
- Prepare high-quality engagement plans and activities
- Recognise the benefits of external engagement and how to achieve them
- Understand the use of evaluation for reporting and monitoring
- Plan and deliver effective engagement with policy makers
The workshop is particularly targeted at early career researchers, but all colleagues are welcome. This is one workshop split over two sessions – please attend both. Places are free but limited due to room constraints. Please register at this link:
