Conducting research syntheses on their own is insufficient for achieving policy impact. We transform your work into an opportunity for outreach and engagement, consistent with best practices. Let us guide your creation of usable content that increases your reach among policymakers and starts a conversation supporting the use of research evidence.

There is increasing pressure for scientists to communicate their work but, too often, reports are relegated to a dusty shelf without a robust dissemination plan. Contact lists for policymakers are marketed at a rate higher than most research budgets can allow, especially when the rate of engagement is modest for achieving broader impacts on scientific studies. Additionally, researchers often find that they have limited training or experience on writing for policy audiences.

We offer a one-stop shop for research translation services that facilitate timely policy engagement. Our skilled consultants not only have experience testing effective science communication strategies, but can also harness a strong data backbone for testing engagement strategies in your scholarly discipline.

A modest scope of work will be created to reflect your needs, and will be conducted by trained consultants based on project specifications. A variable rate is influenced by:

• The number of fact sheets you seek to disseminate.
• Whether you have existing and appropriate content ready to disseminate.
• The extent to which consultants advise the editorial process and / or generate content from participants in the Rapid Response Network (contingent on existing subject matter capacity).
