It therefore combines terminology used in Anglophone contexts (the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia) with that of continental Europe\u2014particularly the Netherlands\u2014and, most importantly, with that of the European Commission, which is key to the CERCA context.<\/p>\n<p>The project, led by <strong>David Phipps<\/strong>, Chair of the panel of experts advising on the research impact strategy launched by I-CERCA (Research Impact Assessment Advisory Board \u2013 RIAAB), has drawn on multiple contributions, notably from <strong>Dr Paula Adam<\/strong>, Director of the AQUAS Research Lab. It has also included a capacity-building session for staff responsible for impact at the centres, delivered by Julie Bayley, Director of Research Impact at the University of Lincoln.<\/p>\n<p>Research impact assessment has become a central criterion in major international research systems\u2014such as the UK\u2019s REF\u2014and is a priority in recent European framework programmes. In Catalonia, the Science Act sets out a commitment to developing a comprehensive research impact strategy, a field in which CERCA has been training and supporting its centres for several years.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13444 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Imatge de l'I3PT\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cerca.cat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20250923_I3PT045_ANDREUPUIG.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The document aims to provide a common theoretical foundation for CERCA centres to develop narratives within their research impact strategies.
