This study explores ways of evaluating and enhancing the legacy of Connected Communities projects though a detailed investigation of the methodological approaches, cultural outputs and partnerships established in four specific projects funded under this programme. The study will evaluate and reflect on the impacts these projects have had both in relation to the communities engaged in the projects and the degree to which they have come to stimulate research and cultural activities in new community settings. The projects involved in this legacy project are: Exploring Personal Communities: A Review of Volunteering Processes (AH/J012238/1); Bridging the gap between academic rigour and community relevance (AH/K006185/1); and Untold Stories of Volunteering: A Cultural Animation Project (AH/K006576/1), all led by Mihaela Kelemen and conducted in collaboration with New Vic Theatre, Newcastle under Lyme, and 'Revisiting the Midpoint of British Community Studies' (AH/J006920/1) led by Martin Phillips and conducted in collaboration with Glossop Heritage Trust and High Peaks Community Arts. The first three projects are based on animative (theatre-based) methodologies and have resulted in the creation of documentary/interactive dramas on volunteering, mini-performances about community, and an audio-visual installation that aims to bridge the gap between academic theory and community relevance. The final project embraces an iterative methodology and has led to the development of Glossopoly, a game that acts as a means of illustrating the outcome of the research, as a method for conducting community research and as a mechanism for stimulating wider debates about community amongst community members, practitioners and policy makers/planners. This legacy project will evaluate the impact of three cultural outputs associated with its constituent projects, namely: The untold story of volunteering drama performance, The Boat audio-visual installation, and Glossopoly. Evaluations will focus on individuals and organisations who took part in the original research, as well as policy makers, community practitioners, academics and community members who were not part of the original research but have expressed interest in this research. Evidence will be gathered through narratives, testimonies, and experiential reflections before and after exposure to these outputs. We will use animative and iterative methodologies for collecting the data and this will be supplemented by formal evaluative techniques brought to the project by National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) who has been a partner on one of the original projects.The project will also map out the trajectory and growth of partnerships that have been formed in association with the four original research projects. These include interactions between academics, between academics and community partners/institutional stakeholders, between community partners, and between community partners and community members. The resulting partnership map will encapsulate reflections, stories and artefacts co-produced with all the parties involved in this research.Finally, the project aims to up scale the uptake of animative and iterative methodologies across a range of individuals, groups and organisations via a showcase event held in Leicester, a workshop held at the Locality Annual Summer Camp for Community Organisers and a workshop held at the Department of Communities and Local Government, London. The project will also benefit from international expertise on sustainability and community research through the involvement of Professor Tima Bansal, from Western Ontario University, Canada, her research and practitioner networks and City of Markham's (Toronto) community outreach team.

本研究通过对该计划资助的四个具体项目的方法方法、文化产出和伙伴关系进行详细调查，探讨了评估和加强互联社区项目遗产的方法。这项研究将评价和反映这些项目对参与项目的社区的影响，以及它们在新的社区环境中促进研究和文化活动的程度。该遗留项目涉及的项目有：探索个人社区：志愿者流程回顾（AH/J012238/1）；弥合学术严谨性与社区相关性之间的差距（AH/K006185/1）；以及由Mihaela Kelemen领导并与Lyme旗下的纽卡斯尔新维克剧院合作的“志愿者的不知道的故事：文化动画项目”（AH/K006576/1），以及由Martin Phillips领导并与Glossop遗产信托基金和高峰社区艺术合作的“重新审视英国社区研究的中间点”（AH/J006920/1）。前三个项目以动画（剧场为主）方法为基础，创作了关于志愿服务的纪录片/互动戏剧、关于社区的小型表演，以及旨在弥合学术理论与社区相关性之间差距的视听装置。最后的项目采用了一种迭代的方法，并导致了词汇游戏的发展，这是一种说明研究结果的游戏，是一种进行社区研究的方法，也是一种激发社区成员、从业者和政策制定者/规划者之间更广泛讨论社区的机制。这个遗产项目将评估与其组成项目相关的三个文化产出的影响，即：志愿戏剧表演的不知道的故事，船视听装置和词汇。评估将集中在参与原始研究的个人和组织，以及政策制定者、社区从业者、学者和社区成员，他们不是原始研究的一部分，但对这项研究表示了兴趣。在接触这些产出之前和之后，将通过叙述、证词和经验反思来收集证据。我们将使用动画和迭代的方法来收集数据，并辅以国家志愿组织理事会（NCVO）为该项目带来的正式评估技术，NCVO是其中一个原始项目的合作伙伴。该项目还将规划与四个原始研究项目相关的伙伴关系的发展轨迹和发展情况。这包括学术界之间、学术界与社区合作伙伴/机构利益相关者之间、社区合作伙伴之间以及社区合作伙伴与社区成员之间的互动。最终的伙伴关系图将包含与本研究中涉及的所有各方共同产生的反思、故事和人工制品。最后，该项目旨在通过在莱斯特举行的展示活动、在当地社区组织者年度夏令营举办的研讨会以及在伦敦社区和地方政府部门举办的研讨会，扩大个人、团体和组织对动画和迭代方法的吸收。该项目还将受益于可持续发展和社区研究方面的国际专业知识，通过加拿大西安大略大学的Tima Bansal教授，她的研究和从业者网络以及万汉姆市（多伦多）社区外展团队的参与。
