University of Bristol AHRC Impact Acceleration Account

通过AHRC影响加速账户，我们的目标是通过发展技能和能力，培养一种能够实现有效和雄心勃勃的知识交流的文化。我们的目标是扩大产生影响的研究人员的数量，测试创新想法，并沿着影响管道推进研究成果。我们将通过公平和可持续的伙伴关系加强与利益攸关方的接触，支持取得创新和有影响力的成果。我们的目标是在艺术和人文学科内部建立能力和影响力，从传统艺术和人文学科研究中产生商业和社会影响，创建和扩大可持续的伙伴关系，同时在我们的影响加速账户的基础上嵌入平等、多样性和包容性以及负责任的创新。我们将通过一系列公开竞赛来实现这一目标，提供从小型创意种子基金到大型加速器奖的“融资阶梯”。这允许早期阶段的支持；测试风险、创新想法和快速失败的空间；并在项目通过影响管道时提供支持。我们将保持灵活的做法，以确保活动满足不同学科和合作伙伴的需要。基金阶梯为研究人员提供了获得开发和领导影响力项目的经验的机会，使他们在机会出现时处于领导大型跨学科影响力资助投标的有利地位。公开竞赛将鼓励来自AHRC职权范围内的任何学科的申请，我们将通过重点通知支持新出现的机会。种子基金和点对点支持将为研究人员提供信心和机会，探索产生影响的风险途径，而持续改进将使他们能够从失败中学习。除了鼓励我们的研究人员外，我们还在测试两种创新方法，奖励旨在发展大规模影响和长期人员交流的奖项。

With the AHRC Impact Acceleration Account we aim to foster a culture that enables effective and ambitious knowledge exchange by developing skills and capabilities. We will aim to broaden the pool of researchers generating impact, test innovative ideas and advance research outputs along the impact pipeline. We will strengthen engagement with stakeholders through equitable and sustainable partnerships that support innovative and impactful outcomes. Our objectives are to build capacity and impact within the arts and humanities, generate commercial and societal impact from traditional arts and humanities research, create and scale-up sustainable partnerships, while embedding equality, diversity and inclusion, and responsible innovation in the foundations of our Impact Acceleration Account. We will do this through a series of open competitions offering a 'ladder of funding' from small Seed Funding of ideas to large Accelerator awards. This allows for early stage support; room for testing risky, innovative ideas and fast failure; and for supporting projects as they move through the impact pipeline. We will maintain a flexible approach to ensure that activities meet the needs of the different disciplines and partners. The ladder of funds provides the opportunity for researchers to gain experience developing and leading impact projects, putting them in a strong position to lead large interdisciplinary impact funding bids as opportunities arise. Open competitions will encourage applications from any subject within AHRC's remit, and we will support emerging opportunities through highlight notices. Seed Funding and peer-to-peer support will give researchers the confidence and opportunity to explore risky routes to impact, while continuous improvement will enable learning from failure. Alongside encouraging our researchers, we are also testing out two innovative approaches with awards aimed at developing impact at scale and long-term people exchanges.
