Year One Celebration Event
ESRC IAA 2023-28: Year One Celebration Event
Join us on Wednesday, 9 October to celebrate the first year of our ESRC Impact Acceleration Account. We will hear from some of the projects it has facilitated and take a look at the broader programme of events and initiatives that have been launched to enhance skills and culture around knowledge exchange within Warwick's Social Science community.
Hear from current award holders about their work with external partners, and join a panel discussion about best practice for achieving self-sustaining impact that builds agency for the collaborators and end users of our research. We will also be formally launching the ESRC IAA Policy Hub, and hearing from the ESRC about UKRI Policy Fellowship opportunities.
We look forward to seeing you!
