Practical guidance on setting realistic policy engagement objectives and prioritizing the right partners and opportunities.
Improved ability to identify where and when research can inform policy decisions across different contexts.
Stronger skills in communicating research in ways that are relevant and usable for policy audiences.
Confidence in capturing and presenting evidence of policy impact for funders, assessments, and future engagement.
