What is the role of publicly funded researchers in the 21st Century? What are their responsibilities in relation to how their research relates to the stakeholders, end-users and members of the public who will be affected by the outcomes?

These are live questions for all researchers wishing to improve the quality of their research and its social and economic impact on wider society. 

In this half-day workshop you will explore the concept of engaged research.
