Universal Impact

Matt Warren, Adam Smith & Sarah O'Meara

Universal Impact (UI) - subsidiary of The Conversation UK - engages with the ISRF Executive Team, ISRF Fellows and other award recipients to generate accessible, short-form content both for the ISRF website and for wider dissemination.

In addition to keeping abreast of ISRF-funded people and projects, UI-led activities include:

Producing Q&As with ISRF Fellows and other researchers working in similar areas.

Ghostwriting blogs for the Fellows about their research

Writing blogs and features about ISRF-funded (and related) research projects

Using related research to answer popular questions

Writing profiles of individual ISRF Fellows and Research Groups

To further increase awareness of the Foundation and the research it supports, UI offers help to all eligible Fellows to pitch suitable articles to The Conversation and/or other media outlets.

Where appropriate, UI also help them to communicate their research findings to other potential beneficiaries in an accessible and appropriate way, such as policy briefs or fact sheets for policymakers, charities or NGOs.
