Notice Title

Research England Stakeholder Engagement

Notice Description

Research England (RE), one of the nine constituent Councils of UKRI, provides funding for research and knowledge exchange to 136 Higher Education Providers (HEPs) in England.

The success of RE's policy instruments depends on the way its policy signals are understood and reflected by the leaders of the organisations it funds. For this reason, RE maintains regular contact (engagement) with all the HEPs in receipt of its funding. The purpose of this contact is to create a two-way dialogue, informing and transmitting the policy priorities of RE to institutions. RE plans to carry out a survey to understand the success of its engagem
