Thinking about the big picture, what effects do you want to achieve by applying this principle to your project?

Research is credible and has real-world benefits when you engage with those affected by and interested in it.

What processes will you need to incorporate to reach your outcome? How will each contribute to – and demonstrate progress towards – your outcome?

How will you involve interested parties in your research design? Will you co-produce findings? Will you publish findings publicly to reach target audiences?

What day-to-day activities will get you to your outputs? How will you ensure they are equitable and responsible in practice?

When will you reach out to interested parties? How often will you meet with participants and partners during the project? What media outlets will you engage with?

Who, what, where, when?

Are you working with people or groups who need extra support? Will partners have access to appropriate funding? How much will it cost to make your research accessible to the public?
