本文涉及英国研究理事会对研究的“影响”考虑的新要求以及即将出台的卓越研究框架(REF)的最新讨论。这篇论文认为，考虑影响的必要性应该受到严格的欢迎，鉴于研究总是被主观评估的，学者们应该对他们的研究资金出价和提交给参考文献的影响采取广泛的、而不是自我限制的概念。论文认为，新兴知识交流(KE)议程提供了一种受欢迎的机制，可以在参与性的基础上资助与现实世界合作伙伴进行的批判性参与研究，并探索这样一种KE伙伴关系--低碳利物浦--的经验，以讨论潜力和问题。
This paper engages with recent discussions about new requirements for the consideration of the ‘impact’ of research by the UK research councils, and in the forthcoming Research Excellence Framework (REF). The paper argues that the need to consider impact should be critically welcomed, and, given that research is always subjectively evaluated, for academics to take a broad, rather than self‐limiting conceptionalisation of what constitutes impact in their research funding bids and submissions to the REF. The paper argues that the emerging Knowledge Exchange (KE) agenda provides a welcome mechanism for funding critically engaged research with real world partners on a participatory basis, and explores experiences of one such KE partnership, Low Carbon Liverpool, to discuss potentialities and problems.
