Hugely insightful webinar exploring the role of evidence intermediaries.

Some interesting reflections about how we work in that space between evidence generation & policy/practice, and share capacity across sectors to tackle complex problems.
Webinar recording now available! Discover the role of #evidence intermediaries in closing the gap between #research and real-world #impact: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwO4... Speakers @kerryalbright.bsky.social , Isabella Luksic & Dr Robyn Mildon. #ImpSci #Implementation #SytemsChange #philanthropy

New data published exploring the trends around children’s involvement in violence & the sectors most important in supporting them.

Worryingly, the data presents a bleak picture, with increases in the number of children being affected by serious violence.

👇
Today we’ve published our annual Beyond the Headlines report, examining the latest data on youth violence and the sectors that support children.

This year’s report covers the final year of the last parliament – and trends over the last 10-years.

Looking forward to our next workshop!

My final regional meeting! We spent the day exploring EEF’s newest TA guidance report & discussing implications for regional mobilisation. We also reviewed plans for strategic exemplification, drawing upon learning regarding how to use video well. Will miss these meetings!

Last week, I attended an @anti-stigmanetwork.bsky.social webinar focused on substance use related stigma across general practice. It was great to explore approaches to developing inclusion & addressing the impact of societal stigma regarding alcohol & substance misuse.

The UK is among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty.

In the UK, 11% of 15-year-olds reported they had skipped a meal in 2022 because there wasn't enough money to buy food.

In the Netherlands and Finland, this number was 3%.

Hugely insightful day at @huntingtonrs.bsky.social exploring belonging and what this means for schools. So many important takeaways!

Today we delivered Workshop 2 of our Evidence Exploration Partnership in Warwick. The focus of the day was examining local data to build consensus around the priority for the partnership. We also discussed the importance of promoting equity & challenging unconscious bias.
