SUMMARY:Public Engagement and Research Impact Workshop
DESCRIPTION:**Applications closed** \nWhen: 28–30 January 2026\nWhere: The Burn\, near Edzell \nThe focus is Public Engagement and Research Impact. In today’s research landscape\, the ability to engage effectively with the public is a vital skill that enhances both the visibility and the impact of researchers’ work. \nIn this workshop\, you will be introduced to the concept of public engagement — what it is\, why it matters\, and how it can enhance the impact of your research. Guided by public engagement and research impact experts\, you will explore practical strategies for identifying and understanding different target audiences and tailoring your message (and engagement activities) to resonate with specific audiences while maintaining the integrity of your research. \nThrough hands-on exercises\, you will develop confidence in communicating complex ideas clearly and effectively\, using a range of techniques. You will learn how to plan\, evaluate\, and document public engagement activities as part of your broader research strategy—ensuring your work has lasting\, measurable impact beyond academia. \nThis is a full 3-day residential workshop beginning with lunch on the 28th of January and ending with lunch on the 30th of January to allow for travel. \n🏡 Residential Format: \n\nAccommodation in shared rooms. Single rooms may be available on request.\nShared bathroom facilities\nAll meals provided in The Burn’s beautiful dining room\n\n💸 Cost: Fully funded by the Scottish Research Alliance for Energy\, Homes & Livelihoods\n→ Free of charge for all participants! \nAny Questions? \nPlease contact Capacity Lead Dr Emilka Skrzypek at sraehl@st-andrews.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Emerging Research Leaders Programme
DESCRIPTION:The Emerging Research Leaders Programme is a skills development programme for early career researchers (ECRs). Built around annual training workshops\, the programme aims to support ECRs in developing skills that will increase the impact of their work and enable them to become future research leaders. The programme also offers opportunities for networking\, knowledge exchange\, and collaborative dialogue on one of Scotland’s most pressing issues: forging pathways towards an equitable and sustainable net zero future. \nThe Programme is open to early career researchers of all disciplines affiliated with Scottish Higher Education institutions\, whose research work is aligned with the aims of the Scottish Research Alliance for Energy\, Homes\, and Livelihoods. \nFor this Programme\, we define early career as a PhD student\, a person who completed their PhD less than seven years ago\, or a PhD holder yet to secure first permanent job appointment (with no time limit since completion of the PhD). \n Media Engagement Workshop!\nDate: 27 – 29th January 2025\nLocation: The Burn\, Edzell \nFollowing the success of our inaugural three-day Policy Engagement workshop in January 2024\, we are delighted to open applications for our next workshop! \nThe 2025 workshop will be delivered in collaboration with Scottish Media Training and will focus on Media Engagement. \nExpert trainers from Scottish Media Training will facilitate learning aimed understanding the media landscape\, generating media interest\, developing an effective media profile\, and conducting highly effective and engaging media interviews. The sessions will include theory and discussion about various media platforms\, reflecting on the significant evolution of the media over the past century and the importance of clear and impactful key messages. We will then engage in practical activities to develop skills in writing press releases and conducting a variety of live\, pre-recorded\, and group interviews\, putting learning into practice. \nWe welcome applications from Early Career Researchers from a wide range a disciplines – from hard and social sciences to humanities – across all of Scotland’s Higher Education Institutions. \nAPPLY HERE\nApplications close on 8 January\, 5:00pm. \nHere is what some of the Emerging Research Leaders had to say about the 2024 workshop: \n‘Over the course of the ERLP workshop\, I have gained a better understanding of ‘impact’ through the lens of public policy engagement.’  \n‘It’s been invaluable being in this collaborative space\, and it’s enabled to see both my strengths for policy engagement\, and next steps.’ \n‘This has been an excellent experience. The topics have been treated with the depth and rigour they deserve.’ \n‘I was grateful to be in the room full of like-minded people. Many conversations helped in developing my outlook on my research and my role as a researcher.’ \nFind out more about the Emerging Research Leadership Programme in the video below. \n \n

SUMMARY:ERLP Policy Engagement Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In January 2024\, we welcomed 25 Early Career Researchers from across Scotland to the Emerging Research Leaders Programme\, and invited them to join us in The Burn\, Edzell\, for a three-day residential workshop. The 2024 workshop was delivered in collaboration with the Scottish Policy and Research Exchange\, SPRE\, and focused on Policy Engagement. \n‘In this event we have encouraged the ECRs to reflect on their own strengths and positionalities\, but also explore pathways to impact\, and meanings of impact in policy engagement. And we supported them in developing practical and pragmatic skills and insights into how that impact\, and that engagement\, can be achieved’ – said Dr Emilka Skrzypek\, SRAEHL’s Capacity Lead and head of the ERLP. \nThe 25 participants represented seven universities from across Scotland\, and a wide range of disciplines – from hard and social sciences to humanities. \n‘It’s been particularly important for us to cultivate a co-learning environment’ – explains Dr Catherine-Rose Stocks-Rankin. ‘For us\, co-learning is respecting that there is a tremendous expertise already within this cohort. What we have tried to do is create a space for people to touch in on those strengths and think about how they can apply some of the thinking and expertise that we hold about policy engagement\, to their own practice’. \nOver the course of three days\, ECRs were introduced to systems and complexity thinking\, evidence-informed policymaking\, science and technology studies\, participatory action research\, and impact evaluation\, to critically interrogate what policy engagement is. Guided by the SPRE experts\, they explored practical tools and frameworks\, through case study examples\, with an emphasis on understanding and tracking pathways that connect research production to change at the policy level. \n \n  \nHere is what some of the Emerging Research Leaders had to say about the workshop: \n‘Over the course of the ERLP workshop\, I have gained a better understanding of ‘impact’ through the lens of public policy engagement.’  \n‘It’s been invaluable being in this collaborative space\, and it’s enabled to see both my strengths for policy engagement\, and next steps.’ \n‘This has been an excellent experience. The topics have been treated with the depth and rigour they deserve.’ \n‘I was grateful to be in the room full of like-minded people. Many conversations helped in developing my outlook on my research and my role as a researcher.’ \n  \n
