Research to Action is joining The Guardian for a live chat tomorrow from 1pm onwards on the Guardian’s Global Professional Network: Development research: improving access and relevance
We will be discussing the trending topic of improving both access to development research and strategies that make it useful to others. Research to Action, along with many others, will be debating the following questions:
How can researchers ensure that their work extends beyond the academic community?
How can development research be more widely accessed and used?
How can the funders of research support and encourage researchers to more effectively engage with the audiences for that knowledge. And should they require it?
How much does it cost to ensure research is accessible and relevant – and who pays?
The live chat is not video or audio-enabled but will take place in the comments section (below). To join the panel, or give your views before the chat, email globaldevpros@guardian.co.uk. Follow our tweets using the hashtag #globaldevlive
