About the event
It is important that, as much as is feasible, we ensure that our research makes a difference. Research can boost our economy, protect the environment, enhance social functioning, lay the foundation for innovation and change societal discourse. From a career perspective, the practical and policy-oriented impact can boost a researcher’s reputation, lead to more research opportunities and help to secure funding.
But how can you increase your opportunity for impact beyond academia when you are still at the beginning of your research journey? How can you best communicate your findings and convince your key stakeholders that they will benefit from your research? How might you influence policy and practice?
ARC Laureate Fellow Professor Sharon Parker (Curtin University) will lead a discussion on increasing research impact beyond academia. She will be joined by ARC Laureate Fellow Professor Kliti Grice (Curtin University) and ARC Centre Director Professor Janeen Baxter (University of Queensland)…
