Impact is how we know that our work is making a difference<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To create the biggest positive impact<\/strong> with our research, we listen to everyone involved, including partners, communities, retailers, politicians, and more. By sharing our results, we stay accountable and make sure that we keep researching what’s important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Engaging with Stakeholders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To make the maximum impact, it is important to talk to and engage with all the people<\/strong> who might be impacted by the work. These are known as the stakeholders, and may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

The Public<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Members of the public get involved when feedback is needed on new, ongoing, or future research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They get involved by participating in surveys, webinars, and focus groups about specific research questions<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

Industry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Industry partners (like supermarkets) can be involved in sharing data with researchers, but not always.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Collaboration between researchers and supermarkets can often take a long time to work out.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

Politicians<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Politicians get involved when research can influence law, or when government opinion is useful for the research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be through workshops, targeted reports from researchers, or other meetings.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Shopping Trolley Secrets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

To better understand what people think about us using their shopping data<\/strong> in health research, we launched Shopping Trolley Secrets<\/em> at We The Curious Science Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition used fun activities to make our research easier to understand and discuss. We are now using public feedback from the event to directly influence our research<\/strong>, including the topics we choose to study and where we go from here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
