[Irtalk] Impact of Social Sciences – Towards an open research university: creating the conditions where engaged research can flourish.

[Hilton Gibson]

Embracing the values of publics, stakeholders and end-users enriches
knowledge generation and exchange, improving the quality of research.* For
the principles of engaged research to become embedded in university
cultures of research, however, fundamental changes are required at
strategic and operational levels.* Richard Holliman has been leading a
programme of organisational change at the Open University to create the
conditions where engaged research can flourish across different academic
domains. Here, he argues that questions of quality are at the heart of
securing a progressive agenda for engaged research.
