Chapter 7 in How to Engage Policy Makers with Your Research, 2022, pp 73-82 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Co-produced research between policy and academia is of increasing importance, both to ensure meaningful impact and to bridge the perceived gap between academic and policy contexts. Embedding researchers within organisations has been one way to address these challenges as well as develop shared agendas and overcome barriers to using research in policy and practice. This chapter provides an example of developing co-produced research through the use of embedded researchers within a large, multi-disciplinary programme. It offers insight into the motivations and expectations of policy and academic partners' involvement and describes some of the practicalities of establishing and managing these roles. A selection of top tips are included for those who are interested in taking this approach to co-produced research.
