Making research visible

As a researcher, scientist, centre of expertise, or research institute, you don't conduct research just to keep it on a shelf. You want to initiate change, help people, solve a problem, or improve something. And you know that your research can contribute to that. But to achieve that change, that contribution, your research has to be visible. It must be brought to the attention of the right people in a way that they can use it and benefit from it.


C in research helps you to communicate about your research. Because more (and better) communication leads to more visibility. And more visibility means more impact. Your research matters so let everyone know!


Training 'Impulse4impact'

Of course you communicate about your research, but if you approach your communication in a structured manner, you can reach more people and realise more impact.


Let me take you through 7 steps to give an impulse to your research. Mapping your stakeholders and target groups, planning, using different communication channels, making content, making knowledge products, it's all covered.


By the end of the day you are well on your way with a communication plan for your project.
