Research evaluation beyond traditional bibliometrics. Through a series of roundtables and an extensive survey, we learned that academic leaders want broader, inclusive academic evaluation and a more holistic approach to research evaluation incorporating broader impact on society. This webinar will explore the results of the roundtables and surveys conducted throughout 2023 before exploring the perspective of leaders from universities and funding bodies around the topic of academic and specifically research evaluation.

Of the very real challenges that the world faces today, be it climate change, pandemics, or sustainable economic growth, these are clearly articulated in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Each and every-one, of the 17 Goals, demand research and innovative solutions and are unlikely to be solved by individual researchers. They require collaboration between problem owners, teams of multidisciplinary researchers, cooperation across national boundaries and collective endeavour. In this webinar, join us in a deep dive into the assessment and evaluation of the impact of SDG research. We will hear perspectives from 3 experts from government and academia. We will then discuss how the evaluation of broader impact, is important to helping us understand the progress, best practice and evidence sources that can help demonstrate impact towards the UN SDG Goals.
