Support and Resources for 水果派AVResearch Community
In order to mobilise our aim to inform policy-makers and enhance public life through knowledge transfer and a breadth of world-leading research designed to meet the changing needs of society – locally, nationally and globally we support 水果派AVacademics and researchers to engage with public policy through:
The Policy Development Fund is designed to support the promotion of 水果派AVresearch to policy makers, legislators and regulators via events designed to foster engagement between research and policy.
Policy Development can include presentations and promotional activities to raise awareness of the policy relevance of 水果派AVresearch to relevant policy, legislative and regulatory audiences. It can also be a meeting/series of meetings to allow for academics, policy professionals, and policy practitioners to come together to discuss current priorities and proposals for future work.
The policy development is an open call with a rolling deadline. The panel will assess the application and come back to applicants within two weeks of submission. If you would like to discuss your application prior to submission please contact us on bpp@brunel.ac.uk.
To learn more about the Policy Development Fund, download the guide and application form available on the BPP intranet page linked below.
