CSTI Policy & Impact
Introduction
As part of CSTI’s engagement and dissemination activities, we invite policymakers to spend time as a visiting researcher with the centre. Policymakers use this time to develop more rigorous evidence bases for longer-term STI strategic policies and are given time and space to reflect on their policy experiences. All this is with the support of CSTI staff, who provide conceptual frameworks and research insights to facilitate the policy and evidence investigation. These placements have resulted in conference or journal papers that use the policy case studies to provide unique insights for policy makers.
To support knowledge diffusion, CSTI researchers are also seconded into Government Departments and Agencies. These placements are focused on specific policy challenges that CSTI’s researchers have experience and insight into from their research. These placements have resulted in policy reports and presentations that provide evidence for policy development.
