UWE Bristol has a well-established community of over 100 Arts and Humanities (A&H) scholars, built from competitive investment over the last decade, who have embedded excellent, high-impact research in their practice and are actively engaged in collaborative research with external partners. With our Impact Acceleration Account (IAA) funding from the AHRC, we want to build capacity for impact and KE across UWE, ensuring that A&H led research collaborations feed into the wider UWE impact pipeline. We also want to increase the ease of movement and exchange of expertise between the University and its network of partners. Our IAA programme will enable us to consolidate and develop our research impact and KE strengths.Aims and objectives The aim of this IAA is to enhance and increase the impact of our excellent A&H research base by dedicating funds specifically to its realisation alongside our strong A&H-led KE, community engagement and impact methodologies. To deliver on this aim, our IAA objectives are to:a. Fund a wider range of A&H-led impact projects, including A&H-led interdisciplinary and international projects, and draw together best practice from across UWE to develop a shared 'what works' approach.b. Ensure that collecting impact evidence becomes standard procedure for collaborative engagement in ways that are mutually beneficial. c. Publish an externally facing toolkit and evidence base for any group looking to maximise impacts from local A&H-led research.d. Make a major contribution to the KE and Impact fields, evidencing approaches needed to support A&H-led research collaborations through the impact pipeline and maximise their impacts. e. Ensure that a plurality of approaches, voices and backgrounds are reflected in those we fund, those with whom we broker collaborations and the end-users we consult. Programme of ActivitiesThrough the IAA work, toolkit and supporting evidence we want to show that with the right ecosystem of impact activities, A&H led research can produce meaningful, measurable transformations across economic, social, knowledge and cultural sectors. Our programme of activities will support this as follows:a. Impact Funding Programme The core activity for this IAA programme will be to deliver an impact programme through quality-led impact funding via open internal competitions:Rapid Response Impact Fund - Maximum £5,000. This fund, with a light-touch application process, will be open to all A&H researchers across the University. Impact and Value Realisation Fund - Maximum £10,000. This fund will be open to A&H researchers across the University. It will provide resource for progressing research outputs towards the next stage in the impact pipeline.International Impact Fund. This fund will support projects with international impact potential. The delivery of international-level impacts from an A&H led research base is a strategic priority for UWE and the UK. b. Capability and Culture Programme To maximise engagement with and effectiveness of our Impact Funds, we will build capability and culture through the following activities:Researcher Skills Development - Design and deliver a workshop programme for UWE A&H researchers to upskill on KE, Impact, partnership building, co-design, and deriving value from research and commercialisation. Mentorship Network - Establish a network of mentors who have shown excellent impact from an A&H base, to support researchers in embedding impact in research. Test Novel Approaches and Value Realisation - Impact Pathway projects to test novel approaches to value realisation. This testing will include working with Professional Services and the Faculty of Business and Law to test new contracting approaches, partnership agreement formats and IP approaches with live A&H led impact projects. Best Practice Toolkit - Share current best practice from across UWE and publish a toolkit which will be designed to have international reach.

Uwe Bristol拥有一个由100多名艺术与人文(A&H)学者组成的成熟社区，这些学者是在过去十年的竞争性投资中建立起来的，他们在实践中嵌入了优秀的、高影响力的研究，并积极参与与外部合作伙伴的合作研究。利用AHRC提供的IMPACT加速帐户(IAA)资金，我们希望在UWE范围内建立IMPACT和KE的能力，确保A&H牵头的研究合作能够提供给更广泛的UWE IMPACT管道。我们还希望增加大学及其伙伴网络之间的流动和专业知识交流的便利性。我们的IAA计划将使我们能够巩固和发展我们的研究影响力和KE优势。目的和目标IAA的目的是通过将资金专门用于实现我们优秀的A&H研究基地，以及我们强大的A&H主导的KE、社区参与和影响方法，来增强和增加我们优秀的A&H研究基地的影响力。为了实现这一目标，IAA的目标是：a.为更广泛的A&H领导的影响项目提供资金，包括A&H领导的跨学科和国际项目，并从整个威斯康星州大学汲取最佳实践，以制定共同的“有效的”方法。确保收集撞击证据成为以互惠互利的方式进行协作的标准程序。C.发布面向外部的工具包和证据库，供任何希望从当地A&H主导的研究中最大化影响的组织使用。对知识经济和影响领域做出重大贡献，证明通过影响管道支持A&H领导的研究合作并使其影响最大化所需的方法。E.确保多种方法、声音和背景反映在我们资助的人、我们经纪合作的人和我们咨询的最终用户中。活动方案通过IAA的工作、工具包和支持证据，我们希望表明，借助正确的影响活动生态系统，A&H领导的研究可以在经济、社会、知识和文化部门产生有意义的、可衡量的变革。我们的活动方案将为此提供如下支持：a.影响资助方案本IAA方案的核心活动将是通过公开的内部竞赛，通过以质量为导向的影响资助，提供一项影响方案：快速反应影响基金--最高5,000 GB。该基金的申请程序较为宽松，将向全校所有A&H研究人员开放。影响和价值实现基金-最高10,000 GB。该基金将向全校的A&H研究人员开放。它将提供资源，使研究成果迈向影响管道的下一阶段。该基金将支持具有国际影响潜力的项目。从A&H主导的研究基地提供国际水平的影响是威斯康星大学和英国的战略优先事项。B.能力和文化计划为了最大限度地提高我们的影响基金的参与度和有效性，我们将通过以下活动来建设能力和文化：研究人员技能发展-为威斯康星大学A&H研究人员设计和提供工作坊计划，以提高知识、影响、伙伴关系建设、合作设计以及从研究和商业化中获得价值。导师网络-建立一个由A&H基地表现出出色影响的导师网络，以支持研究人员将影响力嵌入研究。测试新方法和价值实现-Impact Path项目以测试实现价值的新方法。这项测试将包括与专业服务部门和商业与法律学院合作，测试新的合同方法、伙伴关系协议格式和知识产权方法，并现场实施A&H牵头的IMPACT项目。最佳实践工具包-共享UWE的当前最佳实践，并发布旨在具有国际影响力的工具包。
