Conference

The impact of Impact – Building ‘Impact’ into the job description of researchers and research managers without losing it.

15:30 h.
Impact, or the effects of research in the ‘real world’, is taking a major role throughout all aspects of the research process, from project design through to career and institution assessment. In an environment where researchers and research managers are already pressurised, impact presents an opportunity, but also a challenge. As the CERCA Research Impact Impact Assessment 2024 is coming to an end, in this round table we will discuss with four international experts how to best integrate impact into our daily practices without getting hurt –and you are very welcome to share your experience and have your say!

Philanthropy for research and education in Catalunya: making it work

15:00 h.
A free of charge workshop from More Partnership, CASE and Institució CERCA. The need for effective fundraising in the higher education and scientific research sectors in Catalunya is more acute than ever. Universities and institutions increasingly need to expand and diversify their resources to deliver their missions. This means developing effective strategies to engage with their communities, identify and connect with potential donors, and build relationships that will secure long-term support. But where do you begin? How can you create a culture of philanthropy in your community? Which strategies should you prioritize for your organisation? How can you maximise results on a tight budget? More Partnership, one of Europe’s leading higher education and research philanthropy consultancies, is joining forces with the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (CASE), a global nonprofit association dedicated to supporting educational advancement professionals – to provide an afternoon of insight and exchange to discuss these questions and more. #advancement #fundraising #philanthropy #highered #research #education #europe We will explore the latest trends and opportunities in fundraising and advancement strategies for higher education and research in Catalunya.
