IMPACT PATHWAYS RESOURCES ARE HERE!

iPEN's resources on impact pathways are finally here!

Although it has been slow going (like the gestation of an elephant....) we have been working away on finalising our impact pathways resources this year. 

Due to the changes that have been occurring across the science system, including to iPEN ourselves, we have developed these resources to 'stand alone' - i.e., to be useful and usable by as many across our system without further input or guidance from iPEN  (e.g.  webinars or training).

The resources include a document introducing key diagrams and tools for impact pathways, a definitions document, and an 'explainer' video series, to walk people through what impact pathways are, how the conceptual framework we've developed is intended to be used, and most importantly, HOW to build them into research projects and programmes. 

We've made the diagrams we've developed freely available for others to use, to support the kind of consistency in understanding and practice that the sector that both iPEN and our colleagues cross the system are keen to support. 

To access all these resources, visit our iPEN Resources. The Impact Pathways explainer video series can be found on our new  iPEN You Tube channel.

​Please feel free to use and share these resources widely. Feel free to contact us if you are interested to learn more about what has been communicated here.
