PS24036 - Measuring International R&I Policy Engagement and Influence
Notice Description
The final date and time for the submission of bids is Thursday 15 February at 11:00 DO NOT apply directly to the buyer. All tender information MUST be submitted through the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal. Brief Description of Requirement - DSIT (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology) currently spends part of the overseas aid budget, Official Development Assistance (ODA) on research and innovation through three major initiatives: The Newton Fund (Newton), the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) and the International Science Partnerships Fund (ISPF). The Department also funds UKRI to deliver the Fund for International Collaboration (FIC). Additionally, the Department also spends on international research collaborations outside of the ODA context, including EU R&D programmes. These funds support UK scientists and innovators to work with peers around the world on some of the most pressing themes of our time. This funding is allocated by partner organisations to thousands of award holders, typically led by UK academic research institutions. - As these Funds are intended to address Global Challenges, there is a focus on positioning for impact. One important area of impact is Policy engagement/influence (in the UK and Internationally). DSIT would like to understand if funding through GCRF, Newton Fund, FIC and EU R&D programmes has Policy engagement/influence. One approach to this is to develop a method for scanning and analysing data, web or other sources for documented evidence of engagement/impact. Aims and Objectives To measure the potential engagement and influence of DSIT International R&I Funds on Policy. This will involve developing a method for scanning and analysing data, web or other sources for documented evidence of engagement/influence.
